[Verse 1]
Will you be able to take the danger?
Can you stand the heat?
Will the honourable member for Blackstown
Resume his fucking seat?
It's a parliamentary process
Whereto danger dwells
A division that's required
Ring the bells! Ring the bells!

[Verse 2]
Proportional representation
Really boils my blood
All rise now for the entrance
Of the Usher with Black Rod
"I warn the Honourable Member!"
The frantic speaker yells
"I name the Honourable Member!"
Ring the bells! Ring the bells!

[Chorus]
You can ring the bells, ring the bells!
(Gimme bi-cameral legislature)
You can ring the bells, ring the bells!
(Gimme bi-cameral legislature)
Gimme bi-cameral legislature
Don't gimme no Proletarian dictator
[Verse 3]
Questions without notice
Are burning in my soul
A double dissolution
Leaves no time for rock 'n' roll
"I'm a country member!"
Doug Anthony did yell
Yeah mate, we remember
Ring the bells! Ring the bells!

[Chorus]
You can ring the bells, ring the bells!
(Gimme bi-cameral legislature)
You can ring the bells, ring the bells!
(Gimme bi-cameral legislature)
Gimme bi-cameral legislature
Don't gimme no Proletarian dictator

[Outro]
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
Gimme, gimme, gimme bi-cameral legislature
