lirik lagu leave it in the ground – the bushwackers
[chorus]
well, you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
[verse 1]
well, i’m lyin’ awake and listenin’ to the coal trains in the night
will they meet the multinational bottom line?
by the time it’s on the water, we’ve already lost the fight
and our children are the victims of the crime
[verse 2]
there’s miles and miles of farming land that’s goin’ under the knife
will another rural family lose their land?
they’re drivin’ them to debt and fear and pain and suicide
the truth is that their blood is on your hands
[chorus]
’cause you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
[verse 3]
well, they’re frackin’ here, they’re frackin’ there, just like they own the joint
’cause the government has given them the right
electoral funding guaranteed, well, that’s the bl**dy point
i don’t know how you b*st*rds sleep at night
[chorus]
’cause you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
[fiddle solo]
[bridge]
the landscape is a moonscape, the scenery is shot
your coal dust poison floating on the breeze
the aquifers are dyin’, they’re ruining the crop
we’ve gotta put an end to this disease
[chorus]
’cause you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
no, you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
no, you can’t eat coal and you can’t breathe gas
they’re sellin’ out the country for a pile of cash
they’re diggin’ it up and shippin’ it out wherever it can be found
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
don’t send it off to china, leave it in the ground
