Midnight Oil - Stand In Line Lyrics
Oh get down, getting down, so much money in the ground
For the people who don't deserve it now
It's a circus we're the clowns as the giant ones disown
Every bit of something we call home
We get a bit to play around with doesn't really matter
They kid us with their dole, kid us with the dope
But generally speaking, nobody's got a hope
We're playing the music of the middle-aged queens
Getting fatter and fatter and splitting their jeans
It's all the same, we're out in the cold
The good ones died, the others just got old
Everything's set, everything's fine
You just got to stand in line
You just got to stand in line
Getting down, getting down, we have to make it now
Everybody's beaten, everybody's down, oh everybody's down
So goodbye to the creeps who are making it
Goodbye to the let it happen stand
I'm moving out got no doubt they've forgettn twist 'n' shout
They never ever listen to the man

Great song and awesome bass line. Check out my transcription at https://www.dropbox.com/s/ampenl8up3sm6yo/Stand%20In%20Line%28Midnight%20Oil%29%5BBass%5D.pdf?dl=0
Great song but the studio recording doesn't quite do it justice. The live versions are all time though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3kXyF-K8GU
What a great sound from 2:30 onwards, surely it's not possible to listen to this and keep your socks on!
Nothing like the oils hey!
4:15 :-)
