| 作词 : Cale | |
| It's a squalid little town with a tenuous beauty | |
| The cool wet mornings are so appealing | |
| People waking up suddenly in the night | |
| Very disappointed | |
| At the water's edge fishermen smashing their boats – taking nothing for granted | |
| In a few hours the heat will hang over town as the northeast monsoon comes roaring in | |
| Can you feel it? | |
| Afghanistan Afghanistan whatever happened to you | |
| I don't really care but I thought I'd ask in case it mattered to you – let me hear it | |
| They're cutting their heads of in the soccer field | |
| Stretching their necks in the goal | |
| Taking them out in the elephant grass feeding them to the hyena's | |
| Don't you hear it | |
| Everybody's lips are thin – eventually eyes are empty | |
| This a letter from abroad life is cheaper back home | |
| Let me hear it | |
| You learn form novels living out there rainfall is followed by thunder | |
| You hear a man's voice soothing and calm – "I understand no problem" |
