Bedlam Bridge - Midnight Oil
In this city with no footpath there's a building with no people
There is crime and gun decisions.
There's a street of heat and hawlers, there's a house of hope and drifters
There's a gang that shoots then listens
There's a place that knows no poverty, a town without pollution
Gis
There's a soul with good intentions
There are canyons full of movie stars, churches made of metal
There are mountains made of muscle
We have leaders who are anxious we have captains not courageous
Captains tumbling into madness
But there's a man who makes no enemies
A body never breathless
Gis
No ambition ever hopeless
cis
Up on bedlam bridge somebody is waiting
Up on bedlam bridge I'm shot to heaven
Fis Gis
Oh up on bedlam bridge waiting
(same chords)
In these locked and shackled neighbourhoods
Nridge and tunnel diplomats
See the golden ghetto's creeper
Crazy flags from history, songs for the White House gangsters
Guns for hellgate railway sleepers
But there's a man...
So how stands the city on this winter's night?
The city on the hill or so they said
The snow is falling down around the armbury
The city's closing in around my head
Up on bedlam bridge...
Drive - drive the engines harder - drive
Up on bedlam bridge...
Drive drive drive
Won't you turn the engines over - drive
