Semitones
And buried bones
King Suleman says to be in the taxi by 4
We barter for starters
They pray for the martyrs
My maw wishes I'd give her a call
The walls that they're building
The calmness of children
Gassed as they were kicking a ball
What's it gonna take this time?
What's it gonna take to change your mind
When everything is cosy and fine
What's it gonna take to change your mind?
My friend Saaed
Covered his heid
With a balaclava cos the soldiers remember a face
10 years since his cousin
One in twenty dozen
Was ended before he had begun
And that's why we stand here
Me trembling in fear
45 degrees in the Sun
What's it gonna take this time?
What's it gonna take to change your mind
When everything is cosy and fine
What's it gonna take to change your mind?
And after the melee
They sheltered and fed me
And then they sent us on our way
Often I wonder
If under the Sun there
Whether they are marching today
What's it gonna take this time?
What's it gonna take to change your mind
When everything is cosy and fine
What's it gonna take to change your mind?
