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
