[00:08.22] I'm sitting around at the checkpoint
[00:15.77] Keeping myself to myself
[00:22.78] My heart's going out to the girl with the gun
[00:29.83] She is young, she is fun, she is deadly
[00:36.70]
[00:37.58] She clocks off, goes back to the city
[00:45.23] Goes to a club with her friends
[00:50.02]
[00:52.70] I just took a walk through the checkpoint
[00:59.66] Past columns of poor Arab sons
[01:07.04] They queue through the day for a chance to make pay
[01:14.65] For something to put in their mouths
[01:20.97]
[01:22.05] He can't sleep at night without gunfire
[01:29.30] The lullaby puts him to sleep
[01:34.23]
[01:51.62] We stand there accused of the British collusion
[01:58.72] Israel into Palestine
[02:06.01] A victory for some an astonishing hope
[02:12.89] But for him it has brought devastation
[02:20.54] He lives like a prisoner in exile
[02:27.95] He lives like a prisoner in hell
[02:33.10]
[02:36.11] Dates black and white in the blue vault of space
[02:42.40] Swoop around like a symbol of peace
[02:50.30] Can they see the hawk?
[02:53.30] They're too busy in talk of love
[02:57.92] Why should they contemplate fear?
[03:02.58]
[03:05.55] Everyone meets in the cramped city streets
[03:12.78] Hipsters of Zion collide
[03:19.62] To talk music and dross
[03:23.05] At the sign of The Cross
[03:27.27] We eat our falafel for peace
[03:34.81] The girl lets her uniform slip
[03:42.22] The boy cracks a joke, he is sweet
[03:49.48] He listens to hip hop in Gaza
[03:56.60] She listens to Coldplay in Lod
[04:01.82]
