How can we dance when our earth is turning
How do we sleep when our beds are burning

I really love this song, I used to think it was just a nice catchy song, but recently my Australian gf explained to me its meaning, and how it's actualy about the way whites have abused the Aboriginals it seemingly became even more meaningful. I believe it's about the Stolen Generation, though I'm not sure. Anyway, anyone else like the song?

I have a native friend. I always apoligize to him for giving guns and alchohol to his people.

He forgives me.
