If Ned Kelly Was King — Midnight Oil

Hollows threats and a great adventure So much business, towns in the dirt Company cans and efficient Americans

Three black boys sit in the corner White woman waiting to talk Lots of intention but no understanding

If Ned Kelly was king He'd make those robbers swing He'd send them down

Heavy machinery loud in the outback Dreamtime developers they make all the sound Where will we be when they leave us a quarry?

If Ned Kelly was king He'd make those robbers swing He'd send them down there He'd make them stay And we can hope
