Strange Land

Washed up on the beaches
 What history teaches
 We hold out a hand
 When the refugee reaches
 At least it's supposed to be that way
 Welcoming faces
 We found you a place it's
 Out on the street
 If you can't get the wages
 Or if you look a certain way
 Strange land
 Upon your arriving
 Be aware of the thriving
 Bigoted right wing
 Culture of fighting
 Another world war on autoplay
 This civilised nation
 Is based on frustration
 Your lack of possessions
 Reflects our obsession
 With getting more and more, not giving it away
 Strange land
 So youre welcome in theory
 But in numbers not really
 Unless you got plenty
 Of disposable money
 Those who forget the past
 Are doomed to repeat it
 Those who divide the world
 Would have you believe it's
 Better to blame the dispossessed
 Better watch out or you'll be next
