Eyes On Fire - John Schumann
Written by:John Schumann
Out here on the western line where the carriages bump and sway
And the aerials tag the skyline and the ragged children play
I lined up every morning we were living from pay to pay
Eyes on fire
There are some things mister that I just don't understand
How the job I've had for 20 years has just moved to Japan
And I'm standing in a dole queue while my country's changing hands
Eyes on fire
Eyes on fire and in the firelight
Yeah no one's taking anything more from here without a fight
Eyes on fire
My shoes are made in Poland I've got a pair from Singapore
These gloves come in from Shanghai we don't make them anymore
And there's all these kiwi shearers here I've never seen before
Eyes on fire
My radio comes from Taiwan my car's made in Korea
My son was making car parts but they closed the plant last year
It's not coming back the company made that very clear
Eyes on fire
Eyes on fire and in the firelight
Yeah no one's taking anything more from here without a fight
Eyes on fire
So hold on darling it's a real rough ride
We'll make it out of here to the other side
And while the sun still shines and the birds still sing
They can't take away important things from us
Like faith
Like faith
And hope
And hope
And dignity
And dignity
And dignity
And dignity
And eyes on fire
You can hear the changes coming like the rumbling of a storm
And under southern skies I see the breaking of the dawn
We didn't start the fighting but we won't run from the war
Eyes on fire
Eyes on fire and in the firelight
Enough's enough no more ground
Nothing more without a fight
Eyes on fire
It'll be all right
It'll be all right
It'll be all right any longer
It'll be all right
It'll be all right
It'll be all right any longer
It'll be all right
It'll be all right
It'll be all right any longer
It'll be all right
