Midnight Oil

Midnight Oil (also known informally as "The Oils" to fans), were an Australian alternative rock band from Sydney originally performing as Farm from 1972 with drummer Rob Hirst, bass guitarist Andrew James and keyboard player/lead guitarist Jim Moginie. While vocalist Peter Garrett was studying at Australian National University in Canberra, he answered an advertisement for a spot in Farm, and by 1975 the band was touring the east coast. By late 1976, Garrett moved to Sydney to complete his law degree, and Farm changed its name to Midnight Oil by drawing the name out of a hat. more »

Fresh air soft landing
So good to be home
This bruised world's got its beauty
It's where I belong.

The sight of those green curves
Quickens my heart
Break the grip of Leviathan
Now I'm ready to start.

Have I been away too long
Have I been away too long
Have I been away too long
I just can't wait.

Saw big smoke umbrella
Blue lights up close
Exploiters of psyche
Stealing the code.

I imagine completeness
No spin cycle deceit
Time and tide keep on rolling
Now the world's at my feet.
