Thunder |
| They are up on the fences, hanging by scraps |
| In temporary trenches, out laying traps |
| Bags wrapped 'round their faces |
| Baseball bats and home-made tasers |
| They’ve got bars and bricks and fucking bombs |
| And they’re dangerous because they don’t think they’re wrong |
| Are you friend or are you foe |
| Do you meet your end, with a hammer blow |
| Do you believe that every life is worth a shot |
| Or do you load the bullets up to kill the lot |
| It all feels so senseless, scrambling like rats |
| In a pit with no exits where we are the cats |
| Murdered by the nameless |
| Killed in beds where they should be safest |
| They’re all mothers and fathers and children too |
| And you’re scared of them 'cause they don’t look like you |
| Are you friend or are you foe |
| Do you meet your end, with a hammer blow |
| Do you believe that every life is worth a shot |
| Or do you load the bullets up to kill the lot |
| I’ve seen a man on fire burning in the street |
| I’ve seen a woman buried to her neck, stoned for disbelief |
| I’ve seen a man thrown from a tower because he loved another man |
| I’ve seen a child soldier martyred by another child’s hand |
| I’ve seen a stampede massacre on holy ground |
| And I’ve seen whole families being drowned |
| I’ve seen a baby lying face down in the tide |
| And I’ve seen thousands homeless begging for their fucking lives |
| You say they are nothing but a number |
| But when they speak it sounds like thunder |
| And all they want are your homes |
| Your life, your blood, your bones |
