great australian bank - what they did lyrics

from the view atop mt. lawley through foliage and roof
the rio tinto building looks down upon you like the
eyes of god or a beacon of hope
if their bountiful salary lures you, well you best ought to know

you can have it all in a minerals career
abetting theft of land and all the tears, tears, tears
but it’s all alright. yeah, it’s okay
when you’re laughing en route to the bank on payday

(what they did)
left nothing behind here
(what they did)
but a trail of blight here
(what they did)
and never stopped to pretend
(what they did)
that they were your best friend

gonna fly you to the dry over red hills and cliffs
to where once there was land, now a big, big ditch
but they got drills and loaders that you’re licensed to drive
is talent gone and wasted if it’s spent in the mines?

(what they did)
left nothing behind here
(what they did)
but a trail of blight here
(what they did)
and never stopped to pretend
(what they did)
that they were your best friend
(what they did)
party to displacement. cameroon, africa
(what they did)
poisoned the water supply in bougainville, south east asia
(what they did)
feigned altruism for the working class
(what they did)
condemned us all, planted firmly on their +rs+
