We’ll create prosperity
We’ll pave the way
Make no mistake
It’s guaranteed
Mmm

We’ve got it all rather figured out
With a long-term goal
To work and grow
So have no doubt
No no

‘Cause we won’t stop
Till we’ve ripped you from the land
Till the furnace glows
With your last show
Only then will it end
(hear hear)

And we won’t halt
'Till you’re gone
But it’s all part of the plan
(with)

Oh (oh) coal (coal)
The jury came back long ago
But oh (oh) coal (coal)
We just can’t let you go
Oh (oh) coal (coal)
We ought to leave you down below
But oh coal (oh coal)

They’ll plough ahead with their ears and eyes
Shut wide
To our demise
They’re dragging us down their abyss

They’re proud to be our parliament
But it aint us they represent
‘Cause they neglect to hear our say on this

Yes they won’t stop
Till there’s nothing left to burn
Till they’re chasing time
And racing fire
Only then will they turn
(hear hear)

They will erase
All the beauty that we hold
‘Cause when it comes down to
What they value
It only comes in gold  

But we won’t halt
Till you’re gone (oh)
Yeah this time we’ll be heard

Oh (oh) coal (coal)
The jury came back long ago
But oh (oh) coal (coal)
They just won’t let you go
Oh (oh) coal (coal)
They oughtta leave you down below
But oh coal (oh coal)

Yes we came a long way
For which we needed you
It’s not to say we don’t appreciate
Just that our time is through

We got a reef that’s dying (no no no)
First people fighting (no no no)
We got a world that’s trying to stop you
From flying to the sky

Oh (oh) coal (coal)
The jury came back long ago
And oh (oh) coal (coal)
We’ve got to let you go
Oh (oh) coal (coal)
Gonna leave you down below
And oh (oh) coal (coal)
We’ve got to let you go

Woah (oh) coal (coal)
The jury came back long ago
And oh (oh) coal (coal)
It’s time to let you go
Yeah (oh) coal (coal)
Gonna leave you way down below
Oh (oh) coal (coal)
