Morrissey This Is Not Your Country Lyrics

Road blocks and fire
Barb wire upon barb wire
This is not your country

Armoured cars, corrugated scars
Grafitti scrawls
This is not your country

Home sweet fortress
Gunshot, we hate your kind, get back
This is not your country

I need some air
And I'm stopped and repeatedly questioned
Born and raised but this is not my country

We're old news
All's well say BBC scum
One child shot, but so what?

Laid my son in a box, three feet long
And I still don't know why

A short walk home becomes a run
And I'm scared
In my own country

We're old news
All's well say BBC scum
Everybody's under control of our surveillance globes

We're old news
All's well and thirty years could be a thousand
And this Peugeot ad spins round in my head

British soldier pointing a gun
And I'm only trying to post a letter

A short walk home becomes a run
And I'm scared, and I'm scared, I am scared

Old news
All's well BBC scum
You've got more than the dead so zip up your mouth
Zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth
You've got more than the dead, so zip up your mouth
Zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth
You've got more than the dead, so zip up your mouth
Zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth, zip up your mouth
You've got more than the dead, so zip up your mouth
