Beds Are Burning Lyrics

Out where the river broke
The bloodwood and the desert oak
Holden wrecks and boiling diesels
Steam in forty-five degrees
The time has come to say fair's fair
To pay the rent, to pay our share
The time has come, a fact's a fact
It belongs...

   Man, that last post must have really pissed somebody off, because my ears have been ringing like the church bell at the end of It's A Wonderful Life. I suggest anybody who reads these posts research the subject of Remote Neural Monitoring.

   Another aspect of this problem that should not be overlooked is the right-wing's war on pot, in particular delta 8 products. Many people use these products to sleep. I've noticed a pattern with the local dispensaries. Any time I find a product that helps calm me and get a good night's sleep, it mysteriously will get discontinued. The products that replace it will make my ears ring and body feel very hot. This is not normal. It couldn't be more obvious that my former employer is stalking my every move and then coming in behind, doing everything they can to make life miserable and prevent me from getting sleep. These people belong in a looney bin. They are dangerous.

   From what I'm gathering, I think it's becoming very clear why Adolf Hitler wore that hideous looking mustache and Franklin Roosevelt held his "fireside chats". We now have an ex-leader who, for whatever reason, wants to be seen associating with a pillow salesman. We also have all this "woke" culture talk. I think there are some serious questions that need answering, much more serious than what our politicians and the media are presenting to the public. It's bad enough having to work for slave wages and being disrespected by our employers, now we have to let the leaders and the corporations invade our homes and molest us in our beds? This must stop now.

   The person posting on this song and making these outrageous claims is clearly mentally ill and a liberal partisan. I would recommend getting the people in this person's neighborhood to start honking their car horns whenever they step outside. It is the best way to deal with a problem of this nature. We can't have people speaking such nonsense about our leaders when they are trying to Save America. Hail to our Chief and Saviour, Mr. Donald J. Trump!

   This song is more relevant now than ever, and the terror these people are bringing is directly to the neighborhoods. It's hard to believe that so many people would be willing to display such brazen behavior and participate in an obvious and hostile takeover of our democracy. And to do it front of the eyes of every federal law enforcement agent and technological wizard in the land shows the utter level of stupidity at which these people operate. It's amazing what people will do when they think they have the backing of a nutcase brandishing a nuclear weapon.

   Yes, we have a serious problem with lunacy in this world. Right now, I am being stalked and assaulted on a daily basis by an obsessive ex who is connected with the media, a looney corporation connected to the media, a certain ex-leader (who lost an election badly), and another leader. They make my pet urinate on the carpet, keep me up all night with nose snorting, and put my body to the heat. Then they place Progressive ads on my internet pages telling me to "prove it". I've never seen such a group of deranged maniacs in all of my life.

   This song is about powerful, corrupt individuals who have access to technology that enables them to make a person's face or body feel like it's being held to a fire. It's basically a form of sleep deprivation torture, and although it's been utilized for many years to punish people who speak in the interest of freedom and common sense, it is being abused now more than ever. Hate groups, sinister businessmen, and corrupt politicians are especially fond of this type of torture. It is a method in which they can cowardly express their discontent towards another person when they don't get their own way.
