lyrics

One on the top tube
One on the rear rack
We don’t know how lucky we are

Kids on the upper deck
Mom in the boat’s hold
When the freighter caught our eyes
We all rushed to one side

Who gave you a stone when you asked for a bread?
Who opened their homes when you needed a bed?

It’s only us, only us in total limbo!
It’s only us, only us and reckless mercy!

One man’s privilege is another man’s pursuit
Excuse me but I’ve gotta get my kids to school

Who gave you a gun when you asked for a pen?
Who told you to run from what you don’t understand?
