We Are Not Numbers (If You’re Not Crying When You Think About Palestine) - The Undercover Hippy

If you’re not crying when you think about Palestine
You don’t really know a thing about Palestine
When you’re trapped between the bullets and the borderline
Where you gonna run to when the bombs start falling?

Well now he’s searching for his father in the rubble
But he’s crying so he’s seeing double
He’s clinging to his brother’s hand
cos his mother used to tell him just stay out of trouble Ali listen to your brother

But now his mother’s gone
And there’s no place to run
there’s no place to hide from the open sky
And when you’re done
What will this child become
When you’re raining fire into his open mind?
Raining fire into the open

If you’re not crying when you think about Palestine
You don’t really know a thing about Palestine
When you’re trapped between the bullets and the borderline
Where you gonna run to when the bombs start falling?

Well now they’re talking bout the numbers on the telly
20 thousand 30 they don’t know how many
So many families got no one even left to bury every generation been taken like it was ordinary
And still you’re telling me there are no innocents
While you be bombing all the children in their tenements
And while our crooked politicians keep arguing over who the threat is
I hear these dead kids singing

We are not numbers no no
We are not numbers no no no no no
We are not numbers no no
We are not numbers no no no no no

While our leaders wring their bloody hands
And say they can’t give in to our demands
They keep on signing the papers
And doing the favours
That keep the weapons
Flowing to the holy land

So tell your leaders that you’ve had enough
And keep on fighting never giving up
Try to give your voice to the voiceless
There’s power in your choices
Singing at the top of your voices

We are not numbers no no
We are not numbers no no no no no
We are not numbers no no
We are not numbers no no no no no
We are Palestine
