[Verse 1]

We've got the green light

We're gonna dynamite

A world heritage site

Scientific recourse

Try to keep them so short

Hey, never read the details

Says it needs protection

But we've got elections

Coal-fired erections

We're gonna make it pay

We'll do it our way

So how about a railway?

[Chorus 1]

The sky is a mirror

The sea and the breeze

The sky is a mirror

Of self-interest and greed

[Verse 2]

It really fits with our brand

Lumps of coal in our hand

Welcome to tomorrowland

Environmental injury

Trashing our ecology

So simply valedictory

Coral reefs are history

Bring on the artillery

[Chorus 2]

It doesn't belong to the government

It doesn't belong to the mine

It belongs to the people

People like you and I

[Bridge]

The sky is a mirror of self-interest and greed

[Outro]

Take them down and throw them out

Vote them in and vote them out

Consign them to purgatory

Cash on delivery

All coral reefs are history
