Look at all those people from some grey place Slack of limb and pale of face Sole survivors from some distant war Late arrivers from some other shore They're just looking for a way to settle down Far from that war-torn city and ravaged town And they say: All we ever wanted All we ever needed All we ever wanted me and you Was a room with a view Horizon steeples and dreaming spires Make way for wasted people and raging fires The stunning thud of missile and mortar bomb Til they don't know where they're going or coming from They're just looking for a place to settle down Far from that war-torn city and ravaged town And they say: All we ever wanted All we ever needed All we ever wanted me and you Was a room with a view Refugees abandoning their way of life Wooden cart and bandaged feet in step with strife Ethnically cleansed but grimy to the core When will this racist hatred be no more? They're just looking for a home to settle down Far from that war-torn city and ravaged town And they say: All we ever wanted All we ever needed All we ever wanted me and you Was a room with a view |
