|
Road blocks and fire |
|
Barb wire upon barb wire |
|
This is not your country |
|
Armoured cars, corrugated scars |
|
Grafitti scrawls: |
|
'This is not your country' |
|
Home sweet fortress |
|
Gunshot - we hate your kind |
|
Get back ! |
|
This is not your country |
|
I need some air |
|
And I'm stopped and repeatedly questioned: |
|
'Born and raised ?' |
|
But this is not my country |
|
We're old news |
|
All's well |
|
Say BBC scum |
|
One child shot, but so what ? |
|
Laid my son |
|
In a box, three feet long |
|
And I still don't know why |
|
A short walk home becomes a run |
|
And I'm scared |
|
In my own country |
|
We're old news |
|
All's well |
|
Say BBC scum |
|
Everybody's under control |
|
Of our surveillance globes |
|
We're old news |
|
All's well |
|
And thirty years could be a thousand |
|
And this Peugeot ad |
|
Spins round in my head |
|
British soldier pointing a gun |
|
And I'm only trying to post a letter |
|
A short walk home becomes a run |
|
And I'm scared, and I'm scared, I am scared |
|
Old news |
|
All's well |
|
BBC scum |
|
You've got more than the dead, so zip up your mouth |
|
Zip up your mouth |
|
Zip up your mouth |
|
Zip up your mouth (repeated) |
