Drillin In Too Deep​/​The Others

from Breakfast by Meals

about

Originally intended as a protest song against the East West Link development in Melbourne. Now that's been taken off the agenda you can take this track as a general environmental protest tune.

lyrics

Not gonna mention the consequences?
Drillin In Too Deep

On the defense I'ma bomb the jesters
Havin a laugh, running a bath,
Camp in a park I be stabbin a shark.
You better beat me I'm really smart,
You better treat me roll a cigar
Snot gonna fetch my hanker chief
Shot in the chest I want some beef
Do you do meat cause i'm a vegan
Under the sheets never the season
Body gotta sweat for exercise
Sittin down all day gotta rest my thighs
Testify, testify, impermanence yeah testify
Big birds nest cause eggs to fly, eggs to fly

You be drillin in too deep
You be drillin in too deep

The Others

Big man got a bodyguard / not a big fan I be on a march / gotta withstand this / be solid demand this doesn't last / comin out the slums of the upper class / another disaster on top of us / to stop this we gotta get fast / understand the reasonable sense past / we're a modern metropolis / starlight not smog from the top o' this / enourmous exhaust pipe coppin this / (east west link stink) we're coppin this / never been different though has it / sweaters be sweaters damn it / pity their faces red / powerful people gone in the head / crazy decisions I made impressively pale next to the hazy envisioning / failed delivery certain / certain as fading hopes / learning be swerving nervously / curtains be kinda close / yearning be a legacy / so we just gotta cope

Step into line with the others
Step into line with me
Step into line with my brothers, you'll see
Step into line with my brothers
Step into line with me
Step into line with the others, you'll see

Mixed messages affecting in the text but i'ma trick you into think i'ma link you into meaning / nuh uh / it's just a bunch a shit / punchin in the dark maybe a stark attempt at architecture / lucky i'ma bark and fetcha / quick stepping stones for getting home / message tone i bet it poses obstacles or is it prose supposed to make your belly know / jelly stone's the place to go / when it snows the toasty plates admire those composed enough to lunch with an acquired taste / picture a fire place a bet on what the choir chase / whisper a lie and face the truth of the invasion / i'm a praise worthy curvy gentleman a murphy / then a swervy serving i'm a tennis player surfing / the dentist i'ma cursing it's the menace of the curly wurlys / burning up my gum trees turning up ya mum steeze / i bleed crumbs o' weed smoke share the love please / a pair of particles apart is all we are at least
