[00:33.94] There are murders that we must account for
[00:37.84] Bloody deeds have been done in my name
[00:42.34] Criminal acts *I* must pay for
[00:45.60] And our children will shoulder the blame
[00:49.80] I`m a British subject *Not* proud of it
[00:53.95] While I carry the burden of shame (Repeat)
[01:22.10] As a nation we`re following blindly
[01:25.45] No-one stops to question why
[01:29.36] Our money`s supporting an army
[01:33.26] And a boy in Soweto dies
[01:37.52] I`m a British subject *Not* proud of it
[01:41.48] While I carry the burden of shame (Repeat)
[02:41.34] Must we go on ignoring forever
[02:45.59] The cries of an African son
[02:49.09] There`s a soldier`s hand on the trigger
[02:52.60] But it`s we who are pointing the gun
[02:56.65] I`m a British subject *Not* proud of it
[03:00.71] While I carry the burden of shame
[00:33.94] There are murders that we must account for
[00:37.84] Bloody deeds have been done in my name
[00:42.34] Criminal acts I must pay for
[00:45.60] And our children will shoulder the blame
[00:49.80] I m a British subject Not proud of it
[00:53.95] While I carry the burden of shame Repeat
[01:22.10] As a nation we re following blindly
[01:25.45] No-one stops to question why
[01:29.36] Our money s supporting an army
[01:33.26] And a boy in Soweto dies
[01:37.52] I m a British subject Not proud of it
[01:41.48] While I carry the burden of shame Repeat
[02:41.34] Must we go on ignoring forever
[02:45.59] The cries of an African son
[02:49.09] There s a soldier s hand on the trigger
[02:52.60] But it s we who are pointing the gun
[02:56.65] I m a British subject Not proud of it
[03:00.71] While I carry the burden of shame
[00:33.94] There are murders that we must account for
[00:37.84] Bloody deeds have been done in my name
[00:42.34] Criminal acts I must pay for
[00:45.60] And our children will shoulder the blame
[00:49.80] I m a British subject Not proud of it
[00:53.95] While I carry the burden of shame Repeat
[01:22.10] As a nation we re following blindly
