Arson Kites
She stood up straight and she took a walk outside
The wind was warm, it carried every shout and cry
Black acrid smoke to choke out the bluest sky
Flags breaking through the dark, colours flying high
The shot rang out with a clear sharp surround
Leg popped and a kid hit the ground
People screamed at the top of their lungs and they ran
Tears streamed, people fell on the sand
Did you see them?
That guy had a bottle, he had a stone
I saw them
We gave ample warning, told them to go home
Arson kites coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
Bang bang and his crutches fell like trees
Blood and bone and a people on their knees
Medics came and were shot in the back
Journalists were targeted for attack
Did you see them?
Three hundred metres away but they want us dead
I saw them
This line is ours to defend, aim for her head
Arson kites coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
Burning tyres coming to get you
Balloons are coming to get you
Small rocks are coming to get you
Big flags are coming to get you
Journos are coming to get you
Doctors are coming to get you
Disabled, coming to get you
Unarmed and coming to get you
Little kids are coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
The wind was warm, it carried every shout and cry
Black acrid smoke to choke out the bluest sky
Flags breaking through the dark, colours flying high
The shot rang out with a clear sharp surround
Leg popped and a kid hit the ground
People screamed at the top of their lungs and they ran
Tears streamed, people fell on the sand
Did you see them?
That guy had a bottle, he had a stone
I saw them
We gave ample warning, told them to go home
Arson kites coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
Bang bang and his crutches fell like trees
Blood and bone and a people on their knees
Medics came and were shot in the back
Journalists were targeted for attack
Did you see them?
Three hundred metres away but they want us dead
I saw them
This line is ours to defend, aim for her head
Arson kites coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
Burning tyres coming to get you
Balloons are coming to get you
Small rocks are coming to get you
Big flags are coming to get you
Journos are coming to get you
Doctors are coming to get you
Disabled, coming to get you
Unarmed and coming to get you
Little kids are coming to get you
Arson kites coming to get you
