I need city lights defense and weaponry

No way of knowing my life expectancy

I learn resistance like I learn to see

A living witness

A lonely refugee

I'm a war child

I'm a war baby and that's the difference between you and me

I'm a war child

My occupation is being occupied

I stop at the corner to be identified

Across the border they pretend victory

I'm playing in the rubble and dream of destiny

You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge

We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news

PLO lovers courting after the curfew

Your father and brother have the West Bank blues
