Artist/Band: Morrissey
Lyrics for Song: This Is Not Your Country
Lyrics for Album: Lost: Rare Tracks [1999]



Road blocks and fire

Barb wire upon barb wire

This is not your country



Armoured cars, corrugated scars

Grafitti scrawls

This is not your country



Home sweet fortress

Gunshot, we hate your kind

Get back

This is not your country



I need some air

And I'm stopped

And repeatedly questioned

"Born and raised?"

But this is not my country



We're old news

All's well

Say BBC scum

One child shot but so what?



Laid my son in a box

Three feet long

And I still don't know why



A short walk home becomes a run

And I'm scared

In my own country



We're old news

All's well

Say BBC scum

Everybody's under control

Of our surveillance globes



We're old news

All's well

And thirty years could be a thousand



And this Peugeot ad

Spins round in my head

British soldier pointing a gun



And I'm only trying to post a letter

A short walk home becomes a run

And I'm scared, and I'm scared, I am scared



Old news

All's well

BBC scum



You've got more than the dead

So zip up your mouth

Zip up your mouth

Zip up your mouth

Zip up your mouth
