This is your land


This land belongs to all of us
Let us not sit idle
And watch savage dogs
Tear it apart
If our leader is an iron beast
With no emotions
We must show him
The road to the zoo
We may fly to greener pastures
But let us remember
To come back home
And build our motherland
in rubbles
Thanks to talented thieves
in our offices
With long noses and empty promises
Stitched with lies
