Midnight Oil - Outside World lyrics

There's a wind on the eastern side

Ghost Gums dance in the moonlight night

Mopoke mourns the racketeers

The bosses they can sense you mind

All in place to a hand that rules

They all want to deal you out

I can see the outside world

Everything's inviting in the outside world

Leaving all my problems in the outside world

Leaving all my problems in the outside world

It's the summer of another year

A little world weary a little more to fear

Hold those cards tight to your chest

Maybe some day you could be a man

Living quietly in a caravan

Not the Lismore Road tonight
