- lyrics
- Ayatollah, a judge who fled Afghanistan
Because he wouldn’t bow down to the Taliban
Fled to Australia, to give his children half a chance
Only to be greeted, by a barbed wire fence
You call this civilisation?
Well mister, I tend to disagree
No this isn’t, no this isn’t civilisation
When you treat innocent people so mean
Ayatollah’s child was born in exile
Being captive inside a democracy
For a child like this, how can this ever make sense?
When freedom’s on the other side of a barbed wire fence
You know John Howard’s son had a great job at the White House
He had sweet dreams about his privileged opportunities
While Ayatollah’s son, wakes up in a nightmarish trance
But it ain’t no dream, it’s a barbed wire fence - credits
