Analysis Paralysis - Jen Cloher

[00:08.980]Paralysed
[00:16.000]I’m paralysed
[00:24.000]In paradise
[00:32.705]I’m paralysed
[00:39.228]Worrying won’t change a thing
[00:55.209]In paradise
[01:02.638]My first world guilt
[01:10.794]Makes me feel
[01:18.097]Like I really care
[01:25.555]But faith without works is dead
[01:33.259]Devoted to the show
[01:34.965]Not the deeds of compassion
[01:37.433]Full of good intentions but never any action
[01:45.485]
[01:49.596]Oh goddamn
[01:56.574]We drained the dam
[02:04.128]Now the Kangaroos
[02:12.028]Are drinking from the pool
[02:19.580]While I float on by
[02:27.104]The trees can’t decide
[02:34.776]Whether to lose their leaves
[02:42.793]Unseasonably
[02:50.289]A little summer snow
[02:58.622]And no-one knows
[03:05.500]Which way the wind will blow
[03:13.247]If you think it’s the end it’s only the beginning
[03:17.564]Can you spare a minute for #activism?
[03:24.862]
[04:06.834]Paralysed
[04:13.880]I’m paralysed
[04:21.429]In paradise
[04:36.508]While the Hansonites
[04:44.492]Take a plebiscite
[04:52.115]To decide
[04:59.423]If I can have a wife
[05:06.995]I pay my fines
[05:15.034]Taxes on time
[05:22.098]But the feral right
[05:29.496]Get to decide
[05:37.604]If I can have a wife
[05:44.594]If I can have a wife?
[05:52.491]Born into hate
[05:54.051]Brought up to despise
[05:56.402]Frightened of a world
[05:58.199]That’s left them behind.
