If I invaded your city told you how to live, who to worship spat on your brothers would you fight back? If I punished you Without proof By starving your children And shooting your people Would you accept it? If I went on television Shook the hand which strangled you The hand with a wedding ring that killed your pregnant wife would you honour her memory by doing nothing? If it were me And you destroyed my identity, Killed my brothers Criticized my God Labelled me a terrorist Decimated my way of life, Then maybe in my maddening I would strap a bomb to my chest Walk in to Starbucks And blow myself to smithereens. To be tomorrows news After the silicone model On page 4 labelled scum With no reason to say why I did it.
