Lyrics

[00:00.000] 作曲 : David Stefan Rovics
[00:13.080] One point eight million people surrounded on all sides
[00:16.366] Refugees since '48, since '67, occupied
[00:19.923] The only reason they're not starving is down to the UN
[00:23.485] Most have never left there, stuck in the lion's den
[00:26.854] The most crowded place on Earth, and there they'll stay
[00:30.409] They can't visit cousins a half hour's drive away
[00:34.118] Drones overhead, constantly
[00:37.585] Who will die tomorrow, a daily mystery
[00:40.705] In Gaza.
[00:43.632]
[00:47.799] The settlers moved out, fighter jets moved in
[00:51.317] In Gaza there's just no way that you can win
[00:54.748] You can't take out a copter with an antiquated gun
[00:58.041] You're just a target, sitting in the sun
[01:01.916] Waiting for your death to come raining from the sky
[01:05.050] Where the end really is nigh
[01:08.711] You can hear a sonic boom and see a flashing light
[01:11.944] Every hour of the day, every hour of the night
[01:15.525] In Gaza.
[01:17.311]
[01:22.767] There are no shelters, nowhere you can hide
[01:26.072] Life is nothing like it is on the other side
[01:29.397] There's nothing post about the traumatic stress
[01:33.065] There's never more, usually less
[01:36.423] And still some people wonder, they insist on asking why
[01:40.057] Anyone would be so mad as to reply
[01:43.737] So mad as to think that it might make sense
[01:46.964] To lob some missiles over the fence
[01:51.002] From Gaza.
[01:57.353] From Gaza.
[02:04.159] From Gaza...
