A message to British politicians
Where do you stand on genocide?
it’s complicated I know
when the perpetrators
are stood by your side
Most of the world
take the same view
So what, if anything
are you going to do?
A country is not a race
By saying nothing
you share its disgrace
How can you keep
a straight face,
when you talk of peace
and creating a world that is free?
while profiting from war
yeah we see
Who do you stand for?
‘Cause I tell you
“It ain’t me!”
