Standard (EADGBE)
Intro x2
It's a worry these days the way the world's headed
Who knows what tomorrow will bring
If you believe what Al Gore tells us
The future sure looks frightening
Al sees trouble coming over the horizon
The forecast is hot and wet
With ice caps melting and oceans rising
I think I'll take an each way bet
I'm gonna build a beach house in the Blue Mountains
Up above the high water line
Gonna build a beach house in the Blue Mountains
With a cellar full of groceries and wine
I'm gonna be the new Noah everybody's welcome
We'll party till the end of time
Up there in my beach house in the Blue Mountains
Everything's gonna be fine
Repeat Intro x2
It's been a while now since Mother Nature
Has gone back to her roots
The time before it was the Dinosaurs
That got to big for their boots
She's been monitoring the energy crisis
And figures everybody's had enough
She don't care if your Arab or American
She's gonna call your bluff
So I'm building me a beach house in the Blue Mountains
To catch a little afternoon breeze
Up there in my beach house in the Blue Mountains
It's cooler by a couple degrees
Gonna put a lighthouse on the Three Sisters
To welcome all the refugees
Up there in my beach house in the Blue Mountains
Stay as long as you please
Solo
I've got my Bondi apartment up for sale
I'm taking me a tree change
Or maybe that's a sea change
Let's get through this century anyway we can
I'm gonna build a beach house in the Blue Mountains
Up above the high water line
Gonna build a beach house in the Blue Mountains
I hope I get it ready in time
Gonna have my sail boat in the front yard
Set up with my fishing line
Up there in my beach house in the Blue Mountains
Everything's gonna be fine
Repeat Intro x2 and finish on
