Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky The shipyards are deserted on the docks of Melbourne town The wharfies standing strong They gathered round to see what the union had to say There's too much work and not enough pay Say We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky We'll protest in peace, keep the whole thing quiet The last thing needed is a wage-fuelled riot Cos they don't really care They're always standing there Running from the outside From the outside Running from the outside world Do you really care? Why are you standing there Filming for the outside world? Do you really care? Why are you standing there Filming for the outside world? Five weeks had passed when the union made it clear Spirits slowly faded and the end was getting near You see you're all expendable and when all is said and done You'll go back to work tomorrow Or meet your new replacement, son! Roll on Roll on Roll on We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky We'll roll on with our heads held high Our conscience in the gutter Our dreams up in the sky Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on Roll on |

You know we tried to make you understand
We tried to make you realise Her fame is down and time is up But somehow it don't seem enough Cos the world wouldn't listen anymore CHORUS Caught by social evil Wasn't streetwise after all Was she there at all? Pictures in the mirror Pictures she never knew Pictures in the mirror Always reflecting you Not such an ordinary life Pictures in the mirror (twice) The sun goes down The moon appears on the horizon The streets are bare She walks alone REPEAT CHORUS |

Pirate stations in the harbour
Sending a message to the wireless A warning to all tonight There'll be no remorse tonight The flag is burning as we speak So when the lights go out You'll hear them scream and shout Riot on Broadway Lights out on the town Riot on Broadway Anger burns the city - to the ground Secrets told and fears revealed Peace is cheap and a smile's a steal So the world lost it's beat The world lost it's feet Passed by while everyone was sleeping So when the lights go out You'll hear them scream and shout Chorus Well we won't run anymore, won't run We won't run anymore But we'll scream and shout Riot! Riot! Chorus |

STARING AT THE LIGHT
Times up heading for a brighter light The foreign waters put the fire out No one ever asked you Wasn't meant to end this way To end this way You're not alone now You're closing in now Staring at the light so easily denied Staring at the light released before your time Staring at the light look on the other side You never knew why it wasn't up to you Some may relish in the afterlife Dancing slowly on the edge of a knife Sipping wine of the poisonous kind Overdose on loneliness Have no fear now we're on the case Beyond there lies a better place Where knowledge ends and faith begins A hell to stand by and a heaven within Not alone now You're closing in now Chorus You're not alone now You're closing in now Chorus You never knew why it wasn't up to you, to you Times are heading for a brighter light |

He's gonna get you in the end
Then he'll be your only friend There's nothing that'll save your soul All you need is alcohol Step right up and be a man On your knees and pray Freedoms just another open bottle anyway So one more round is all I need Fill it up and let me be It's getting late I should've known Won't somebody carry me home? Pick me up from my knees Carry me home We think you should know It's time to go No more to show Yes it's time to go 6am it's closing time the barman turns the lights out I want another round so bring it on it's my shout Don't leave me sitting here Don't take me for a ride Freedoms just another drink Don't leave me hangin' dry Step right up and be a man On your knees and pray Freedoms just another open bottle anyway Chorus We think you should know It's time to go No more to show Yes it's time to go |

Dirty man thinks he can get away with it
Not too bright where's the light The occupant of his mind Clean man, dirty thoughts should know better After time he will find That things don't work out his way And if he were to be the public enemy If he were to be the public enemy And made a part of his - Hey Made a part of his - Hey Made a part of history Like I was born on Saturday Got buried on Sunday Thought I'd never get caught Feel like I just got married And divorced in the one day And it's not my fault And it's not my fault Now I've thrown it all away And I have nowhere to go Blind man, can't you see what you've become All you made didn't pay Now you're outside to dry On the run, thought you could get away with it Not too bright where's the light The occupant of his mind Chorus |

Call to quit, stand up to vote
Before your dreams end up in smoke Calling you out All of your plans will be washed away Washed away Life is a sin (Life is a sin) Living to win (Living to win) And we're all sinners after all We don't wanna listen to what you say We're old enough to know better You got blood on your hands Can you hear me? We don't wanna listen it's a waste of time Are you for real? You got blood on your hands Can we be set free? Fighting for peace with no identity I know I speak for those around me Calling you out All of your plans will be washed away Washed away Life is a sin (Life is a sin) Living to win (Living to win) And we're all sinners after all Chorus When news becomes gossip And the hounds begin to bleed The rich man's inspiration Becomes the beggar's greed And there's no way to stop it Servicing the need 'Cos the scared cry out They possess an everlasting grief Life is a sin When you're not living to win Life is a sin living to sin We're all sinners after all Chorus |

They came in the evening
Looking for a fight The foreign militia Stole away our right Three thousand miles away Revolution regained (Eyes) Eyes that lie and skin that scars No introductions Nothing left to say See the destruction How could it end this way? This way? Chorus And in the evening Something is seething (Eyes) Eyes that lie and skin that scars Chorus And in the evening Something is seething (Eyes) Eyes that lie and skin that scars Revolution regained |

Somewhere beneath the laughter
The anger begins to affect her Timid like a Chinese whisper Calm like a needle in the eye of a twister We won't surrender Until the end Truthful pretender Won't someone hear the battle-cry She said you're a substitute She said can't you see we're through One more silent victory Victory Struggling hard to forget her He slowly begins to regret her Anger is all that she lived for Walked over his life and then out through the front door We won't surrender Until the end Truthful pretender Won't someone hear the battle-cry She said you're a substitute She said can't you see we're through One more silent victory Victory We won't surrender until the end Truthful pretender Like somebody seized the day Love ran away She said you're a substitute She said can't you see we're through One more silent victory Victory |

No rest for the wicked
No mercy for the rotten Go create some madness More coverage than the homeless Your image here to stay Your photo on the cover of Your photo can't get enough You and I, we read about it We idolise the criminal mind Is there a method in our madness? And we fantasise of committing crimes And so we remain You're taken by the story No escaping from the glory Never to be forgotten Now you're believin' in your press You're not going anyway Your Photo on the cover of Your photo can't get enough Chorus And so we remain And so we became History remains History today |

Killing the right - I don't wanna be a stolen boy
Show me the days of lying in the sun Of stolen memories I struggle to retain one Seems like a phase that only just begun A secret that was told A reason now to run Well the speakers start screaming - whoa For the neighbourhood's dreaming - whoa 'Cos there is no meaning - whoa It's not right it's a fucking outcry Killing the right - I don't wanna be a stolen boy It's a mistake no reason why How did we fade from black to white Taken away from lying in the sun The signal's interrupted - corrupted Are we all the same, are we all to blame Happiness a tease, misery cemented Well the speakers start screaming - whoa For the neighbourhood's dreaming - whoa 'Cos there is no meaning - whoa It's not right it's a fucking outcry Chorus Taxi, get me out of here The voices tell me to be on my way To turn and forget it for another day But I don't want to listen to the voices any more Chorus |

Is there something going on around me
Is there something I should know? The ghost of paranoia slips into my mind And the dust it settles in It's getting harder to remember Just what it is I need to say Another shadow in the memory I'll never be the same again So tell me where the fire is And why is everybody running For all I know I could be losing my mind And the dust it settles in Whoa - Lost inside my mind Is there something going on around me Is there something I should know? Everything just seems to vanish in the haze And the dust it settles in Whoa - Lost inside my mind In my head... long to shed... Now we all are one Whoa - Lost inside my mind Inside my mind |
