lirik lagu children overboard – scythian fate
what
children
overboard
what children?
overboard?
what? children?
overboard
executed in cold blood, terrified families on the run
scattered dreams, fleeing mayhem
beaten faces are drowning … in pools of blood
desperate cries … pulses racing … cloaked in despair
there is no choice but to escape
to escape this dreaded affair
slipping … away
under the blanket of night
people … smugglers
-ssisting their plight
waves, crash around the rusty hull
decrepit vessel’s, sinking fast
hapless refugees
clutch their children, in despair
the attempted navy rescue
offers no new hope
trapped behind barbed wire
psychologically scarred
inside parliament house, the conductor begins
his audience, he reads – in falsetto he sings
“they threw their children overboard!”
“they threw their children overboard!”
waving his baton, his orchestra responds
deceptive violins, begin to play
a distorted melody of racial fear
what democracy
don’t you mean, hypocrisy?
where’s the truth, where did it go?
never mind the election is on
shred the facts, through the publicity machine
the buck stops
with the howard regime
