A mourner in the Lebanon
A logger in the Amazon

Soldiers in the square of shame
Our children play in acid rain
They won't pay a martyr's bail
Black fella in a white man's jail

The Colonel wears Pierre Cardin
But clothes don't always make the man
The teacher preaches what he's told
But can the preacher save your soul
