    ‘At The Time Of Writing’
    (Written by Rob Hirst and Jim Moginie)
    There’s nothing much hanging from the tree in the Garden of Eden
    It takes a long long time for the fruit to ripen on the vine
    We better get together or we’ll end up on the roof with a shotgun
    Because a chance, we’ve only got one
    It’s never very smart to try and strip the bark from an old tree
    We’ve been digging up the dirt since the rocks of the earth were still warm
    Now old king coal is dying, he was never gonna last the long run
    You know a chance, we’ve only got one
    At the time of writing we were in our heads
    At the time of writing we were good as dead
    At the time of writing
    At the time of writing we were fast asleep
    At the time of writing we were in too deep
    At the time of writing
    Wait a little while your eyes will realign into the darkness
    There’s an ice-melt below us, bamboo curtains above
    Our ocean moat protects us, our friends will surely come
    You know a chance, we’ve only got one
    They make no apologies for this, make no apologies for anything
    They make no apologies for this, make no apologies for everything
    We are not responsible for this, we’re not responsible for everything
    We are not responsible for this, we’re not responsible for everything
    At the time of writing we were in our heads
    At the time of writing we were good as dead
    At the time of writing
    At the time of writing we were fast asleep
    At the time of writing we were in too deep
    At the time of writing
    At the time of writing we were on the brink
    At the time of writing, still had time to think
    At the time, at the time, at the time, at the time, at the time

    I still can’t believe how good this record and all of their shows since the reunion were. I’ve seen many 70’s and 80’s bands being washed out but they’re still exactly as good as in their prime.

    Just found this. Had no idea the Oils were writing and playing again. As good as ever, which is a surprise. Most people seem to have a decade or so of great art in them, to find a whole band that still burns after this amount of time is extraordinary.

    I SOOOOOO look forward to seeing Midnight Oil at Rod Laver Arena on 9/3/22, I have loved this band since I arrived from NE England to Australia on 27/8/82, they taught me to respect the original culture of this land, & I have never forgotten (my rescue galah cockatoo makes sure I don't forget, he has learnt to communicate with humans for his survival "following in the steps of his ancestory" we still have yet to learn from the original bird/animals of this land....I will be there on the 9th March, hoping for 2-3hours of absolute political rock!!!!!!!
