Rip Rip Woodchip

What am I gonna do? What about the future? Gotta draw the line without delay Why shouldn't I get emotional? The bush is sacred Ancient life will fade away Over the hill I go Killing another mountain Gotta fill the quota Can't go slow Huge machinery Wiping out the scenery One big swipe like a shearers blow [Chorus] Rip rip wood chip Turn it into paper Throw it in the bin No news today Nightmare dreaming Can't you hear the screaming Chainsaw I saw more decay Remember the axeman knew their timber Cared about the way they brought it down Crosscut black but tallowood and cedar Build another bungalow pioneer town I am the bush and I am koala We as one go hand in hand I am the bush like Banjo and Henry Its in my blood gonna make a stand [Chorus: x2] [Repeats] Rip rip wood chip Turn it into paper Throw it in the bin Don't understand Nightmare dreaming Can't you hear the screaming Stirs my blood gonna make a stand --- Rip Rip Woodchip - John Williamson
