RIP RIP WOODCHIP
Words and Music by John Williamson
| What am I gonna do – what about the future? Gotta draw the line without delay Why shouldn’t I get emotional – the bush is sacred Ancient life will fade awayOver the hill they go, killing another mountain Gotta fill the quota – can’t go slow Huge machinery wiping out the scenery One big swipe like a shearer’s blowRip rip woodchip – turn it into paper Throw it in the bin, no news today Nightmare, dreaming – can’t you hear the screaming? Chainsaw, eyesore – more decayRemember the axemen knew their timber Cared about the way they brought it down Crosscut, blackbutt, tallowood and cedar Build another bungalow – pioneer town I am the bush and I am koala Rip rip woodchip – turn it into paper Rip rip woodchip – turn it into paper |
