Did you see them praying and the Army marching in As they clubbed old women did you see the general grin Watch the stones fly and the snipers taking aim On Shatila's birthday, it's a calculated game They're gunning down the children of Jerusalem
Did you hear the screaming, see the horror on his face As he hid for cover in a tiny, unprotected space Did you hear his father pleading, "There is a child here" Trying to protect his son who yelled in terror and in fear That they're gunning down the children of Jerusalem
Did you feel the wind blow from the helicopter blades Did you smell the tear gas, see the demolition raids Did you see the rockets and the dum-dum bullets fly Did you feel the horror to watch one more young boy die They're gunning down the children of Jerusalem
Did you see the roadblocks letting nobody go past Watch the blood flow as time is running fast See someone's brother taking his last breath So close to the hospital but closer still to death They're gunning down the children of Jerusalem
Did you hear the fatcats say “It's not what it appears It's an armed uprising, a realization of our fears Do you hear them chanting that this is their homeland They want what's ours and we've got to make a stand So we're gunning down the children of Jerusalem”
Some want power and it seems the world's theirs to give Some just want peace and a decent place to live Some talk of destiny and what their God has willed And a mother weeps that her nine-year-old's been killed They're gunning down the children of JerusalemTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
