Nuclear Cop
The sky is red and the earth is black 1990 and we haven't looked back Got it on a jumbo, send it overseas Got a lot of money now who needs trees?
We've all got jobs now, no more dole Plenty of money now uranium's sold I'll ensure supply won't stop Because I'm Australia's Nuclear Cop
Well I guard the world and its plain to see Look after you after looking after me Of peace and safety I'll make sure Least until someone offers me more
We've all got boats, planes and more Twenty-five fingers that's a bore Got no brains but I'm right at the top I'm Australia's Nuclear Cop
It's never been better in this land of dreams Cake and steak and American jeans Stuart Highways sealed at last They can get the ore to the airport fast
Adelaide galleries full of art Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Nothing's too dear and for a start Come and inspect your uranium shop I'm Australia's Nuclear Cop
Sprinkled the waste around Ayers rock Given the dingo a bit of a shock It used to be a black mans sacred site Now it glows like a neon light
Landscape like a Salvador Dali We all spend our summers on Bali Used to be a farmer till my sheep all dropped, Doug Anthony made me a Nuclear Cop
We got a melt down, turn around, where do you hide? Can't let your children play outside Put your Geiger counter near your airtight door Watch it jiggle and hear it roar
There's so much to celebrate Living in Australia's uranium state Parliament House is Leukemia Lodge And standing at the door is a Nuclear Cop
