They're building a wall – a wall between friends
A wall that justifies any means for their ends
A wall between Semites – rich and poor
Brothers and sisters from not so long before
Many feet thick and thirty feet high
No one can look through it and into the eye
Of a person you might know, to whom you might confide
Now just a stranger on the other side

They're building a wall between water and land
So we can eat fruit and they can eat sand
A wall to make sure that our orchards will grow
And our kids can get fat and not need to know
Of the cities in ruins and the children in fear
That your fathers and brothers in tanks might be near
A wall to keep quiet that which you fear most
So you don't have to listen to your grandfather's ghost

They're building a wall between future and past
A wall to keep separate the chambers of gas
From bulldozers, gunships, and the tears of a child
Dignity, love and all honor defiled
To remove reality from your facts on the ground
A wall to keep distant the terrible sound
Of the houses that crumble and the children that die
A wall to keep separate the truth from the lie

They're building a wall and at such a cost
Land, money and safety and all the lives lost
A wall made of brick, but bricks can be broken
When the people of Zion have finally awoken
And said no more walls, no more refugees
No more keeping people upon their knees
And then the history books will someday recall
Before apartheid was ended they were building a wall
