Big Shot

You got a lie and you know how to use it
You got a dollar and a fiscal plan
Running on the tide of a misconception
You told a lot to everyone
I had a life once
I had a mind once
Now if I use it, I’m gonna lose it
Put out the fire in everyone

The big shot don’t listen to you
Gonna get the fright of your life
Black tie they just wanna forget it
Black tie now your gonna regret it
Black tie They just want to watch you fall
Flying over the east side
Selling out the sea
They just want to watch you fall

Another slice of Australiana
Another greased up political hand
It’s drier than bone so you drain basin
Coal and cotton what a master plan
A grain of sand
A piece of land
Sell it off for profit
To fill your pocket
Here come the submarines

The big shot don’t listen to you
Gonna get the fright of your life

Black tie they just wanna forget it
Black tie now your gonna regret it
Black tie They just want to watch you fall
Flying over the east side
Selling out the sea
They just want to watch you fall
A grain of sand
A piece of land
Sell it off for profit

We’re not for sale
I’m not, your'e not, we’re not for sale
