Redgum Talk Lyrics

Nothing much has changed here but the skyline
Out of work, there's nothing to do
Video games have changed their names
There's a new show on TV
Employment schemes, the suburban dream
Aren't much use to me

It's all just talk
When we want some action
The same old lies
We've heard it all before
It's all just talk
I get no satisfaction
Life's too short to hang around And time just slips away

In the corridors of power
Corruption makes the rules
Manipulate the circumstance
And leave the rest to fools
Every day I read the paper

Employment section's looking pretty thin
My old man's crazy, says I'm lazy
He says I never try
I wait for news of interviews
But they all pass me by
