I was living rather quietly by my village in the trees Don't bother anybody and they don't bother me I'm always kind to passers-by, I never make a fuss Considerate of my neighbours so they don't bother us
I don't mean to be unsociable but times my only wealth So I continue to live quietly, keep myself unto myself
One day while feeling lonely I wandered in to town To take a look and listen to what was going down Nothing seemed to change much, all looked just the same So I went about my business till the sky began to rain, began to rain
I took shelter in a doorway and started to peruse Through a local paper to check up on the news Hit me like a hammer, the headline jump and screeched My home was now a target for a missile from the east
The Americans are coming, they're bringing us their bombs To aim them at their enemies from our little island home I don't want to die because of some mad presidents whim I don't want to be a part of a war no one can win
You're welcome here Americans We love you but not your bombs Welcome here Americans We love you but not your bombs...
Welcome here Americans We love you but not your bombs And not your lies You're welcome here!
