And rip ya in half with their razor sharp teeth.

and sea-snakes who'll gladly snatch your last breath.

We've got a blue ringed octopus no bigger than this,
     F
that just sits around in rock pools waiting to kill kids.

We've got stonefish and stingrays and sea-urchins and shit,

and hectic fucken homicidal box jellyfish,
  C                 E
and these Jellyfish they aren’t even sentient beings,
      F
they don’t even really do stuff or know about things.

     C           E
They just float around on the whim of the currents,
    F
being pointless non-cognitive murderous cunts.
  C                E
And if that weren't enough in terms of natural hazards,
F
here in Australia the sun causes cancer.

And at least they can't end up in the hands of suicidal teens.
    Am          G       F               Am       G
And at least we don't have an NRA, who pay millions of dollars every day, buying off politicians not to change

old laws.

     F               Am       G          F
who pay millions of dollars every day, buying off politicians not to change some law.

  Am          G     F
A law that was written 200 years ago,
   Am          G      F
in a time when it took three minutes to reload,
  Am       G        F
a single round of ammunition, and we knew nothing about depression,
     Am        G       F
and you couldn't fire 45 rounds in sixty seconds.

      Am         G         F
And there wasn't even such a thing as automatic weapons.
      Am       G         F
And there weren't thirty one mass-shootings monthly…
   Am
but what would I know cause I'm from another country.
