words & Music by Stefanie Steven 2017
GC
Country’s gone crazy - people are blind
GC
Forced to buy boxes - when there’s no boxes to find
D
just million dollar lean too’s
                                       C
where’s the contract to sign
Am        D G
gotta noose around my neck - but this box is mine

GC
Jippee jippee yeah - up to my eyeballs in debt
GC
Jippee jippee yeah - hope there is no regret
 DC
everybody says - this country is sooooo nice
Am DG
Jippee jippee yeah - welcome to paradise

GC
Now I am sitting in my box, on Marine Parade
GC
Watching 20.000 cars passing by from morning till late
D                      C
But I don’t really care, cause the view is ok
Am     DG
Neighbours in his toilet and it’s a beautiful day. 

GC
Jippee jippee yeah - up to my eyeballs in debt
GC
got a million dollar home - and hope it was a good bet
 DC
everybody says - this country is sooooo nice
Am DG
Jippee jippee yeah - welcome to paradise

GC
When I come from work, I like to swim in the sea
GC
gotta put my wetsuit on to avoid the poo and the pee
DC
but I don’t really mind, cause when I close my eyes
Am        D G
I can dream about a clean blue sea, just like paradise
GC
Jippee jippee yeah - up to my eyeballs in shit
GC
Jippee jippee yeah - but swimming keeps me fit
 DC
everybody says - this country is sooooo nice
Am DG
Jippee jippee yeah - welcome to paradise

GC
The rivers and the lakes are looking sadly green
GC
Minister says it’s swimmable but I am not that keen
D
cause all the farmers cows
                                       C
are dumping in the stream
Am        D G
and I don’t really want to get sick - if you know what I mean

So I sing…


GC
Jippee jippee yeah - up to my eyeballs in shit
GC
Jippee jippee yeah - but I’m not sick of it     (and I'm so sick of it)
 DC
cause everybody says - we are so clean and green
Am DG
welcome to paradise - now you know what I mean.
