Rip Rip Woodchip |
| What am I gonna do — what about the future? |
| Gotta draw the line without delay |
| Why shouldn’t I get emotional — the bush is sacred |
| Ancient life will fade away |
| Over the hill they go, killing another mountain |
| Gotta fill the quota — can’t go slow |
| Huge machinery wiping out the scenery |
| One big swipe like a shearer’s blow |
| Rip rip woodchip — turn it into paper |
| Throw it in the bin, no news today |
| Nightmare, dreaming — can’t you hear the screaming? |
| Chainsaw, eyesore — more decay |
| Remember the axemen knew their timber |
| Cared about the way they brought it down |
| Crosscut, blackbutt, tallowood and cedar |
| Build another bungalow — pioneer town |
| I am the bush and I am koala |
| We are one — go hand in hand |
| I am the bush like Banjo and Henry |
| It’s in my blood — gonna make a stand |
| Rip rip woodchip — turn it into paper |
| Throw it in the bin, no news today |
| Nightmare, dreaming — can’t you hear the screaming? |
| Chainsaw, eyesore — more decay |
| Rip rip woodchip — turn it into paper |
| Throw it in the bin — don’t understand |
| Nightmare, dreaming — can’t you hear the screaming? |
| Stirs my blood — gonna make a stand |
