Midnight Oil / Beds are burning. I didn't listen to this song for a long time, and I forgot artist, title, everything. I trie to look it up from the lyrisc I thoutght I remembered - well it took quite a while, because instead of "How do we sleep while our beds are burning" I typed "How do we dance while our pants are burning" At least, i got the burnig part right...
