  • It was a reasonable take
    But in the time that it took
    To find a beat in the break
    The needle combing through the grooves of your mind
    Had already stuck in
    So you turn to a friend (yeah, mate)
    You asked them what they had left (ahh, mate)
    They stuck their hand down the back of their pants and said
    "I think the conversation might be reaching an end"

    I said, "We can't have that"
    Pour another for my brother
    Sister or whichever or that you prefer we call you
    There is no judgements only understanding
    While we're standing 'round hand in hand
    Watching the world burn, woo

    (Ahh, what was he saying?)
    I saw the narrative peak (yeah, uh)
    Though it was not an event
    As we agreed that everything was so bleak
    That giving your two pence on anything
    It wasn't worth a fucking thing
    So we have become friends
    Though I do not know your name
    And come the morning following the night that everything changed
    I was ashamed to recognize that everything's still the same

    (Ah, mate) ow

    I said, "We can't have that"
    Pour another for my brother
    Sister or whichever or that you prefer we call you
    There is no judgements only understanding
    While we're standing 'round hand in hand
    Watching the world burn, woo

    (I said, "We can't, can't have that")

    I said, "We can't have that"
    Pour another for my brother
    Sister or whichever or that you prefer we call you
    There is no judgements only understanding
    While we're standing 'round hand in hand
    Watching the world burn

    We can't have that
    Pour another for my brother
    Sister or whichever or that you prefer we call you
    There is no judgements only understanding
    While we're standing 'round hand in hand
    Watching the world burn

    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn
    Standing 'round hand in hand, watching the world burn Writer/s: James Smith, Ryan Needham, Sam Shjipstone
