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!”
