Budget Emergency from Degenerational Report by Mining Tax

Smoking cigars on the balcony
Oh it’s a budget emergency
Were building a fence for the refugees
Oh it’s a budget emergency
There’s nothing but bush right so close the communities
Oh it’s a budget emergency
Now lifestyle choices come with a fee
‘Cause it’s a budget emergency
So tear down the camps and build a submarine
Oh it’s a budget emergency
You can’t buy a house or see a GP
Oh it’s a budget emergency
But Frances gets to study for free
‘Cause it’s a budget emergency
Just feed your kids on sugar and tea
‘Cause it’s a budget emergency

Now what you thought was yours
Is now gone
And who you thought you were
Never was

I’m a fixer roll up my sleeves
Cause it’s a budget emergency
We’ll turn the clock back to 2003
Oh it’s a budget emergency
There’s no room for those who are here to lean
Oh it’s a budget emergency
It’s a Whyalla wipeout can’t you see
Oh it’s a budget emergency
Yeah, coal’s still good for humanity
Cause it’s a budget emergency
We gotta build more roads and cut down trees
Cause it’s a budget emergency
So we can all live in houses in North Sydney
Cause it’s a budget emergency
But they’ve changed the locks you can’t use your key
It’s a budget emergency

Now what you thought was yours
Never was
And who you thought you were
Is now gone
