lyrics

Can you really tell me what this's all about cause I think I'm starting to have my doubts
You tell me something but there's something really big in the middle you have left out
What didn’t you want me to know?
What didn’t you want me to see?
That you were paying off smugglers in the middle of the ocean
just as bad as the people smuggling
No accountability
When there is no answerability
You close your eyes, you turn your head and shut your mouth
You always know when to shut your fucken mouth

Say you represent but you’ll never have to answer to our judgment

Border force act going to silence and attack the most vulnerable people around
3 years imprisonment, medical professional for anything that has leaked out
What didn’t you want me to know?
What didn’t you want me to see?
The way you treat the people you lock up in your offshore detentions centres is deplorable and obscene?
Words be going round
But the media makes no sound
Your systematic torture needs accountability
Still you shut your fucken mouth

Say you represent but you’ll never have to answer to our judgment
How can you justify it
Say you represent but you’ll never have to answer to our judgment
