Children arrested throwing rocks
at Israeli tanks we hear
what do the occupied do
to counteract
the fear
of land and homes
destroyed by soldiers
marching into war
and using where you live
to kill and maim
like never before
Palestine and Gaza
a camp whose austerity
is marked by gates and walls
and guns
and vile depravity
undernourished children
life in short supply
and tanks and armoured vehicles
that in your streets now ply
a virulence spreads skywards
its taints the very soul
a wickedness prevailing
men out of control
peccant and disordered
revolting loathsome crimes
the damned are being blasted
the sign, of the times
its a throw back to the old days
impoverishment all round
corruption and depravation
that’s Gaza on the ground
demolishment and mischief
vulgarized each day
thousands being slaughtered
the children made to pay
and the world’s sick media
doesn’t report the news
its puts out propaganda
blatantly does refuse
to show those people
drowning in the bullets and the blood
the Zionists are coming
before them is the flood
what is an imposition
a great adversity
the perilousness of evil
and insecurity
the crisis is so menacing
the danger is so clear
they are naked and so vulnerable
expugnable with fear
some get, 5 minutes warning
before their houses are
blown up what a thought that is
how the heart does scar
how the mind is ravaged
how the soul is torn
Nemesis is raised aloft
at the coming of the dawn
there is now no refuge
no shelter for those who
are frightened and misplaced and lost
their deliverance is through
the obstacle of being
the dissociation
resistance is impossible
right across the nation
barricades and fences
rockets maybe fired
they haven’t got a leg to stand on
who there can decide
any retaliation
their resistance is now low
the belligerency of evil
the pugnacity does grow
bloodshed, sieges battles
skirmishes day after day
there is no mediation
the Gazan’s have to pay
they lost their lands
they lost their homes
they lost their freedom too
they’ve lost their lives
they’ve lost their kids
what does a people do
arm themselves with bricks
and toss them at the tanks
to see
what aggravation they can cause
that’s where the children be
rocks against tanks rumbling
arrests then and the rest
Gaza is now crumbling
Israel does what it does best
be a Bully and a criminal
and just fight on each day
the yanks are stomping up the cash
and the victims how they pay
many many maimed and lost
no bandages at all
with hospitals shelled and torn to bits
we all witness the cost
