The deaf look on
With the blank gaze
Of diplomatic deceit.
A murderous storm passes over
and shakes the homes of Gaza,
The child huddles in the corner,
Hiccups of fear at every thud of a mortar,
every incendiary flash
Every rocket tearing into the heart of the city.
Eyeless in Gaza,
The deaf look on
With the blank gaze
Of diplomatic deceit
Our concerned leaders are making
Herculean efforts,
The Blairs, the Sarkozys, the Condoleezza Rices;
We are so near to a solution….
But there remains so much to be done.
Eyeless in Gaza,
The deaf look on
With the blank gaze
Of diplomatic deceit.
There remains so much to be done
LIAR BLAIR!
The child no longer huddles in the corner,
She is dripping blood and flesh running off the walls
Of the ruins of Gaza City
Eyeless in Gaza,
The deaf look on
With the blank gaze
Of diplomatic deceit.
We are so near to a solution….
LIAR SARKOZY!
The child no longer huddles in the corner,
She is the charred cinders rising into the sky
Over Gaza City.
Eyeless in Gaza,
The deaf look on
With the blank gaze Of diplomatic deceit.
We are in the final phases of an agreement,
LIAR CONDOLEEZZA RICE!
The child no longer huddles in the corner,
She is a heap of mangled remains
In the morgues of Gaza City.
Eyeless in Gaza,
The deaf look on
With the blank gaze
Of diplomatic deceit.
The vengeful Samson stands once again
Over the smouldering ruins of Gaza City.
Eyeless, deaf and dumb,
Together with our concerned leaders
We have reached our solution!
