GET WHAT WE DESERVE
Get What We Deserve isn't a quiet song about a quiet problem. It's a country-rock rallying cry for the reckoning we keep postponing — the collective accountability we owe the planet, each other, and ourselves.
Written by Laura Frank and Nick Morrissey, the track meets anger where it lives and refuses to look away. With driving guitars and a vocal that doesn't flinch, it channels the particular frustration of watching the world burn while the conversation stays polite. It's not nihilism — it's a call to feel the weight of what we've built and decide what we're going to do about it.
Rooted in honest storytelling and shaped by the wide, weathered landscape of regional Australia, Get What We Deservesits at the intersection of alt-country grit and environmental conscience. Raw without being bleak. Urgent without losing hope.
If you've ever wanted to say the quiet part loud, this one says it for you.

I ain’t never been on top Take a look at what you’ve got And all you can say is Just get over it Is all the money worth the cost To have all that you’ve got Cause the rest of us Can’t get over it (We can’t get over it)
We’re tip-toeing around While you’re burning up the ground All you can say is Just get over it I won’t let it happen Not if I can help you change the world
We can’t let this happen If we do we’ll Get what we deserve You’re running all over town Is it time we sat you down? Your shoes are getting bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger
Your taxes overdue Your addiction to brand new Is burning up the ground You say, Just get over it I won’t let it happen Not if I can help you change the world We can’t let this happen
If we do we’ll Get what we deserve We keep spinning round and round we go No one knows Bring the curtain down upon this show Here we go I won’t let it happen Not if I can help you change the world We can’t let this happen If we do we’ll Get what we deserve
