Fatima Mansions - Belong Nowhere Lyrics
No dates to miss, no home to phoneNo face to kiss, no good aloneNo family, no history, a permenant delinquencyNo will to smile, no room to cryNo time to thinkJust watch, dont flinchWhy yes, thats you in your millionth clinchYou murder every time you blinkSome flee disasters for their livesYou flee the spawn of grubby liesAt one with graveyard dust and shipyard rustToo loose to trustYoull heal so much fasterIf your homeland is your masterNo dirt-cheap adriatic sunNo heart of gold back of the gunNo deathcamps built for less than funNo white mans bond, no civilizationNo right to more than birth and deathFrom the drivelling drones of the former westTheir credo dead like brezhnevs bonesTheir headless spears and special malnutrition zonesNo deathcamps here, I tell youJust grey convenience hellTen civil wars unendedneath billboard signs which yell,You need someone prettySomeone english and shifty......Chorus:Let the dirt cover all, cover all, cover allLet the dirt cover allFor its the mother of us all and our bed when we fallWe belong nowhereAnd by the way, youre dirt! dirt! youre dirt!Always know your worthAs you roam this mirthless earth--youre dirt! dirt!No sleep, the phone, God knows what timeJust a wordless click on the end of the lineAnd a thud at the door out back in the darkAs some wirehair creature spins round the yardWhy do you run? why do you hide?Why do you bruise and then decide?You didnt mean it, you didnt seeWell, now youre run to rags and so is sheYoull drink the balkan brandyYou will forget your nameYou will become a captainAnd you will lose all shameYou need someone prettySomeone english and shifty--chorusLet the dirt cover all, cover all, cover allLet the dirt cover allFrom the veil to the shawlFrom the flirt to the brawlWe belong nowhere
