As they washed on the black sandsPlayed right to the white man's red hands

Just another raft of dead vagrantsJust another swarm of alien pagans
As we lie in our warm bedsAs we lie in our warm beds all tucked inAs we lie in our sunbedsAs we lie in our sunbeds hauntedAll haunted by the ghosts of the MujahideenOn the sand was a fat manOn the sand was a fat red white manOn the beach was a black boyOn the beach was a thin dead black boyAs we dine at our tablesAs we feast at our tables - all tuck inAs we fly in our airplanesAs we go on our holidays hauntedAll haunted by the ghosts of the MujahideenFor every deal made and every handshakeFor every deal made and every hand that was shakedFor every piece of paper, for every signatureFor every printed paperOn the beach was a toddler all tucked in …On the beach was a toddlerAll tucked inSo what is the moral?What is the moral? I don't knowWe'll find out tomorrowRead it in tomorrow's horrorshow
