Stars Of Warburton Lyrics

    I, i was, i was shaken down in a toy town
    He, he's out there
    You know it's kennedy's shadow from white cross to michigan
    Atm's, are in the air, oh yeah machines they are spinning out everywhere

    The speaker is speaking
    Can you hear the sound
    The listener is listening as he hits the ground
    The medium or the message but there's no one around

    I couldn't believe
    I couldn't believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me

    We were dancing, we were dancing on the plain
    We're looking through the window didn't see any buffalo there
    We got our pipe dreams, they went up in smoke dreams
    Burn it clean in the climate control, of your hypermark malls
    Don't wanna talk about elvis presley
    Don't wanna see his white shoes walking around
    And around and around over here
    The press baron's acting up the mainframes are down
    Newspapers crawling around on the ground
    The medium or the message still there's no one around

    I couldn't believe
    I couldn't believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me

    Over the hills and mountains we go, so far, so far away
    For the ring of the axe on the ironbark, for the smell of the wallaby stew
    From the golden reefs to the sandstone cliffs
    Came the sheep of the mallee plain
    The wind blew the soil to the orient, we'll be shouting to the skies again

    I couldn't believe
    I couldn't believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
    I couldn't believe
    I couldn't believe the stars of warburton were living in me
    Raining down on me, were washing down on me

    (moginie/garrett)
