Hilltop Hoods - Fifty In Five Lyrics
[SUFFA:]
Terror cleared the skyline and anger clouded judgement,
So they spent a thousand nighttimes in the desert fighting something,
That they couldn’t find, that made it something that they couldn’t fight,
Left us lamenting all the wrongs that they couldn’t right,
From Vietnam to Saddam, we always needing a war,
Neo-conservatives rose up like Viet Cong,
Their fingers on the trigger we won’t be here for long,
They killed MLK and they named a day after him,
They killed JFK and named an airport after him,
Some guy shot a monster called Reagan so he could bone,
A girl named Jodie Foster, if only he’d known,
We tested nukes in the atmosphere, the sea and the dirt,
And they tested all these missiles just to see if they worked,
Now France got ‘em, Russia got ‘em, India and Pakistan,
Iran and Afghanistan, sands of the Arab lands,
Orders from portable commands in armored caravans,
Internet, 3g cellular phones,
Serial killers built mini-cells in their homes,
And we had Manson, Bundy, Gacy, Son of Sam,
Macarena, superman, chicken dance, running man,
Generation X and Generation Y,
And the generation next will degenerate and die,
Cos we got holes in the Ozone that we put there ourselves,
Now the poles are a no-go, earths cooking itself,
And we can’t look at ourselves so we got saline, botox,
Eighteen, fake tits, nineteen detox,
Don’t stop, get it, get it, can’t afford it get it credit,
Buy it, spend it, try it, getting fat? Then you better shed it,
Ab-Swing, Blue Blocker, Tupac or Biggie,
East coast, west coast, Fat Joe or Fifty,
Thatcher the shifty iron lady, Tony Blair,
A princess died, some say cos she got Dodi there,
Whitlam, Keating, Hawke and a promise,
Of no children in poverty, wish that could have been honest,
We had Abbot and Costello, right wing overlords,
Promises and children, they threw ‘em both overboard,
Overwrought refugees thrown to a group home,
Or jailed for the crime of looking for a new home,
Elvis died, Hendrix died, Lennon died, genocide,
In Africa, Serbia, Cambodia, pesticides,
Bio-toxins, chemical warfare,
All’s fair in love and war, more work for the pallbearer,
More terror, more unjust search and seizures,
A tidal wave came and claimed the coast of Indonesia,
Quakes in Iran, Japan and California,
Greenhouse gas turned the world into a sauna,
The trauma of mortars, martyrs, slaughters,
Of partners, mourners, fathers and daughters,
They chased us, caught us, numbered us to sort us,
Raped us, scorned us, to break us they bought us,
Third world kidneys for captains of industry,
Uprising in the street, corruption in the ministry,
A blowjob brought about the fall of a dynasty,
And MP3’s saw the fall of an industry,
Doubled population, halved accommodation,
Carved up resources and we starved the poorer nations,
Beirut, Chechnya, all hell,
Broke loose, Berlin, nineteen eighty nine man, the wall fell,
Cold war ended but that didn’t stop more shells,
Waco lit up the sky like burning oil wells,
A world laid waste with addiction,
Tell Orwell truth’s always stranger than fiction,
Big Brother’s on closed circuit TV and on cable,
Reality’s now scripted, celebrity’s for sale,
Jeopardy and jail, seized, deposed,
Remedies and penalties for failed CEO’s.
We had the Enron collapse, and white-collar crime,
Investors they were taxed, a dollar for a dime,
The blue chip companies and blue-sky mines,
We no longer choose sides we choose sidelines,
Rich bleeding the kind, blind leading the blind,
And history repeats, no competing with time,
Gasses eating the minds of the vets that they bring home,
The plague of Agent Orange, Gulf War Syndrome,
Soldiers sent home, posttraumatic stress leave,
STD’s cos the sleeve ain't sexy,
AIDS shook the eighties, grim reaper with a bowling ball,
Metallica, kill ‘em, let god scold ‘em all,
The Guildford Four, Chicago Seven,
Mumia, Mandela, Oceans Eleven,
Half past twelve on Friday the Thirteenth,
Dawn of the Dead a Nightmare On Elm Street,
Weapons free environment, war zone, phone home,
Melanoma grow as we soak in the ozone,
Home-grown, Hydro, Cocaine, Nitro,
Werewolf in London, American Psycho,
Cyclones, bushfires, Bush firing Scuds,
Baby boomers, Woodstock, what happened to the love?
What happened to the cubs? They fed ‘em to the wolves,
Set a trial for pedophiles, they let ‘em in the schools,
Set ‘em on the students, turned ‘em on the kids,
And everyone responsible should burn for what they did,
And if they try to deny then an eye for an eye,
The government and church on which we try to rely,
Both rob us till it hurts chasing lie after lie,
Like astronauts chasing a pie in the sky,
They landed on the moon but can’t seem to return there,
Makes some question if they ever really were there,
And if they were there now and they looked back,
Could we look them in the eye, could we look back?
Cos when we look back at what we have done,
Can you believe what we have become?
As we walk into the sun,
Can you believe what we have become?
As we walk into the sun

Hilltop Hoods Fifty In Five Comments
Good track but the moon landing shit is a joke; kind of makes them look ridiculous.
The only thing that dates this song is that he calls STIs STDs
They spitten nothin but strait fax
This is still the bombers song I've come across
Nagative rap version but A feeling of compassion
realisation that this is the new version of billy joels, we didn't start the fire
Favourite hilltop song✌️
Ấn tượng! Tôi không hiểu gì tiếng Anh nhưng ấn tượng!
Perfect song for the anthropocene .
Ameeeriicannns, putting uuup, with all the bullshit in the woorld, u're the wealthiest, the biggest, so be braave get muscled, grab ur gun, First Batch, next Bullshit to fiix, newww Baaatch, Better spare them the pain, each country takin caare of his own murde reers (sure about Vietnam things got confused, Vietnamese fightin for independance while americans fought Dictatorship Cancer, so, how can people idealize northern vietnam and be realistic about northern korean horrors, or chinese executions in stadiums or Stalin's Goulag, pogroms, ukraine's starvation)also not idealizing Tibet with some religious, tribal, horrors, some Tibetans better be chinese or indians

This song its like a art
It can tells you millions words in seconds (+1 and hi from Bulgaria BTW how is the day\night )
Sick rhymes education not so much
And people say True Rap doesn’t exist . This is masterpiece 😍
Ah south Australia the hometown of Barnse, the funkours and the hilltop hoods. Yet we are barely on the map even within our own country
In french traduction Please
2019? I like this song 😘 👌
This song gave me Goosebumps no joke.
This song is one of my all time favorite songs of all time. I know I’m late to the party but this song made me explore Hilltop Hoods!
Every word is so true. This is REAL rap. Tells the story we all need to HEAR.
Agreed mate.
This needs more views. Seriously.
Hilltop and blissneso need to make a song together
2019 anyone??
Good video! I'm liked and share 152 times :D
It was always burning since the world's been turning
The Us don't want to see this because they are guilty of at least 49/50 in Five.
Why do act blind when we see. Tell It BROTHER.
The best rap i ever listen
Fuck... they're not sugar coating it at all, are they? Out there telling it like it was (and still is) way back in 2012.
2:11 do u hear the Cambodia 🇰🇭 yap Cambodia have a War it people maybe 1k kill by the of Vietnam pol pot
really?
Better than Billy Joel's we didn't
Do you think he'd agree? A song some what like we didn't start the fire
We didn't start the fire but it was always burning since the world's been turning
this song is so powerful
I'm running for a seat in the Australian house of representatives. Christopher Pynes old seat, Sturt. And you better believe that if I get in my maiden speech to parliament will be a cappella of this song.
Every big fuck up in the history of human beings
This song is we didn't start the fire in awe times
everybod should hear this, some scary truth and how we are our own worst enemy. awesome beat fellas!!
When this song is playing and U can't find the lighter. Your face b like 😑😑😲🤬
"Generation x and generation y and the next generation will degenerate and die" Damm those lines
Anyone else replaying this over and over?
And everyone responsible should burn for what they'd done.
Idk when the BFR plans from space x went public but the rocket at 3:07 looks real similar to it
didnt know aus had that good music, but guess i got a new fav song .-.
A song that brings out the stupid side of war is very successful.
Citizens are the least utilized commodity in the US you can work full time and still make only 12 grand annually with zero benefits.
This is an anthem..
world History in 5 minutes!! back in school it would last 833321421045600 hours... subscribing to your channel and this one definitely need more views than Pewdipie
epic song
Yte on yte hehe
People discussing why it was not released... Me thinks it was just to revealing / to true.
This song is brilliance
Not a suck up... Simple fact
Do you think it has something to do with the clip with JFK getting shot because that was legit JFK getting shot
@Coval
I think it's the whole lot. It is very cutting.
The JFK issue is about as realistic as :
@ fake moon landing
@fake sandy hook
@ fake 911
He was clearly killed by the GOV
@yesthenewno Wait i usually listen to this song while playing games so i didn't notice that they talk about Sandy hook or 911
@Coval
@ Coval - not a conspiracy dude everything they mention is legit. But without getting to deep it's just beautifully put together track
@yesthenewno Yea it definitely is a well put together track
If ya'll can feel the passion ---This video Is nothing compared to experiencing The Hoods live😎
عرب I'm Arabi 💜🙂
Loved this song for years, still love it. So superbly written, and it's hard to believe it's unreleased.
50 years in 5 mins....you could add it up to equal time passed now.....nothings changed....still issues issues issues everywhere.
Respect! amazing song
Welllll... You should have released it as a single. I didn't know what was released and what wasn't. I just expected that this one was because I love it and just naturally sing along.
Read the description:
"However, we never ended up releasing a fourth single."
@DJ Spuddzz I did read the description... however I believe they should have released it.
@Laura-Bulldog-Mad Oh, okay, "I didn't know what was released" gave me the impression that you thought a different song was released as the fourth single.
The three singles off the album are Chase That Feeling, Still Standing and The Light You Burned.
"Everyone responsible should burn for what they did"
The song should be studied and taught in schools
Deep....
As we walk into the sun, can you see what we have become. Sadness is real
This is so much best
why this not popular omg
Because it is naming the Jew.
omg such amazing 💔💔💔
So basically we’re all fucked
Wow. This is depressing.
JUST WAITIN FOR A MATE
Best collab would be 360, Bliss n Eso and Hilltop Hoods
I really don't understand why this song gets above 10 millions likes...
......ohhhh I see if it were a bull shit songs of Justin like baby baby.........it might........
No.... I think it's because they were more active on youtube back then and don't forget JB got supported by famous rapper Ludacris.... By the way don't spread hate bro
Songs spot on, but the animation takes away as its gross and repetitively so.
*This is fact*
Heat on ur ok. Love tunes just don't step over mark
Love tunes
Hey toich I like music Bianca old friend. Ur so scared of me I'm not that bad I'm a fan. But be afraid. I'm cool now old. Think I'm in control
This track is pure bliss... the flow, the message, everything.
Perfection. Everyone needs to listen to this.
<3 Oz Hip Hop <3 Hilltops
this shit real af and dope! the rapping these days is all about money, girls and sex. this is the real topic to rap on! the topic no one talks about! jeez!
You can clearly see the driver turn around and shoot JFK and continue driving.
As much as I disagree with the globalist agenda this song promotes its such a mad tune.
I love the song and the band GO HILLTOP HOODS
I fought in the Syrian war it traumatized me, I've seen things that most people don't it isn't fun. Don't join the army. If you do don't forget about family, use them as motivation also don't forget about your home.
Don't pretend to be a soldier, it's disrespectful to the real ones.
nice vide
Can’t stop listening to this song
Deadset still one of the greatest songs ever produced
maybe one of the best lyrics ever
This song still hits hard. Great all round!
Unfortunately more relevant than ever
🔥🔥🔥
This is such a good song
Seizure warning?
"Can you believe what we have become" this song is SO fucking epic.. but sad.
Emotional, i am gonna join army and when i do this'll be in my head
Wake up <3
I got chills just listening
