I was asleep with both eyes open

Dream freeze sprinklers in the sun

Beer soaked mansions block the sky,

Dingos howl and white flags fly

The future's put on hold and you're still young



But I know seeing is believing

I can't believe what I'm seeing



I was crying with both eyes open

But now all is quiet on dripfeed lottery night

Curse the dugong, free the jet ski,

Suckling babies at the eski

Invite the looters back the price is right.
