forget the bones

forget the bones
forget the land
withdraw the cash
take the cat
take a toke
of this fine hash
then run

give me the jewellery
and I will strap it
all over my body
carry it off to another land
and run

life will go on
amidst the bombs, amidst the guns
life will go on
don’t run

but we are brown, we are green
in a world with no in-between
crescent mooned
lampooned
soon to be
harpooned

forget the bones forget the land bury the jewels take the cash take the cat
run!

there’s no return
no u-turn
don’t look back
but run

educate
we have our brains
they can never take them away
don’t give up
believe in luck

but…
they can blow them up
each one
had at least two guns
nay, they WILL blow them up
you are an infidel
kafir
RUN

and there will be no return
no looking back
(stroke the cat)
no more heat, no more kites
but lots and lots and lots and lots of flights
FOR GOD’S SAKE WILL YOU PLEASE FUCKING RUN!

forget the bones forget the land
strap the cash smoke some hash
(stroke the cat)
we are pawns
we are just bait
so liquidate
dilate
deflate
concentrate
defecate
full of hate
is this our fate?
even fear won’t set us straight

so just forget the bones forget the land
take the cash
(don’t leave the cat!)
take a toke
of this fine hash
