lyrics

Got the DA on the door the other day
Looks like our house will pave the way
For 23 apartments and an acre of stolen sky
The developer came and had a look around
The neighbour could've killed him with those hate-filled eyes

What a thing when you know where it's going
What a thing when there's nothing you can do
And we've got home now and we'll get it again later
But will we still feel the ground like we grew from it?

Where will the yuppies keep their puppies in the day
When apartments fill the sky
And we don't need backyards
The outdated Australian dream
And they wonder why the neighbours never wave or say G'day on the elevator
When they're on their way to the 27th floor

What a thing when you know where it's going
What a thing when there's nothing you can do
And we've got home now and we'll get it again later
But will we still feel the ground like we grew from it?

What a thing when you know where it's going
What a thing when there's nothing you can do
Our home, Battered and Bruised
What's left of the land, torn and used
