Lyrics Courtney Barnett

Courtney Barnett

Dead Fox

Jen insists that we buy organic vegetables

And I must admit that I was a little skeptical at first

A little pesticide can't hurt

Never having too much money, I get the cheap stuff at the supermarket

But they're all pumped up with the shit

A friend told me that they stick nicotine in the apples

If you can't see me, I can't see you

If you can't see me, I can't see you

Heading down the Highway Hume

Somewhere at the end of June

Taxidermied kangaroos are lifted on the shoulders

A possum Jackson Polluck is painted on the tar

Sometimes I think a single sneeze could be the end of us

My hay-fever is turning up, just swerved into a passing truck

Big business overtaking

Without indicating

He passes on the right, been driving through the night

To bring us the best price

If you can't see me, I can't see you

If you can't see me, I can't see you

More people die on the road than they do in the ocean

Maybe we should mull over culling cars instead of sharks

Or just lock them up in parks where we can go and view them

There's a bypass over Holbrook now

Paid for with burgers no doubt

I've lost count of all the cows

There'll be no salad sandwiches

The law of averages says we'll stop in the next town

Where petrol price is down...

What do I know anyhow?

If you can't see me, I can't see you

If you can't see me, I can't see you

If you can't see me, I can't see you

If you can't see me, I can't see you
