Lyrics

[Verse 1] We've got the green light We're gonna dynamite A world heritage site Scientific recourse Try to keep them so short Hey, never read the details Says it needs protection But we've got elections Coal-fired erections We're gonna make it pay We'll do it our way So how about a railway? [Chorus 1] The sky is a mirror The sea and the breeze The sky is a mirror Of self-interest and greed [Verse 2] It really fits with our brand Lumps of coal in our hand Welcome to tomorrowland Environmental injury Trashing our ecology So simply valedictory Coral reefs are history Bring on the artillery [Chorus 2] It doesn't belong to the government It doesn't belong to the mine It belongs to the people People like you and I [Bridge] The sky is a mirror of self-interest and greed [Outro] Take them down and throw them out Vote them in and vote them out Consign them to purgatory Cash on delivery All coral reefs are history
