In Anybody's Language Lyrics

He sprung a leak, spoke when he shouldn't speak
Now the bypass is carving up the country
The future's iron lung, from a university tongue
Been licking at this town for a century
The abattoir gone quiet, they moved it out twenty miles
Now those bloodied hands rest tapping on a sports bet
Well you'll have a better life
You'll have a better life, you mark our words
Have a better life, you'll all get what you all deserve

Oh man, this is too f***** up
In anybody's language it ain't good enough
'Cos I've been here almost fifteen years
In anybody's language this is fight or fear
Pipes on the beach, a sickening rotting peach
As the blood from the Redgum fills the valley
Tracks in the sand, heavy hammers in their hand
And their deals done with their pants down in the alley

Well you'll have a better life
You'll have a better life, you mark our words
Have a better life, you'll all get what you all deserve
Oh man, this is too f***** up
In anybody's language it ain't good enough
'Cos I've been here almost fifteen years
In anybody's language this is fight or fear
