Short Memory - Midnight Oil

Short memory, must have a, short memory

The sight of hotels by the Nile, the designated Hilton style

With running water specially bought short memory

A smallish man Afghanistan, a watch dog in a nervous land

They′re only there to lend a hand short memory

Wake up in sweat at dead of night

And in the tents new rifles hey short memory

If you read the history books you'll

See the same things happen again and again

Repeat repeat short memory they′ve all got it

When are we going to play it again

Got a short, got a short, got a short, got a short

They've got a short must have a short they've got a short aah

Short memory, they′ve got a.
