Wall Around Baghdad Lyrics

They're building a wall around Baghdad
A wall around Baghdad
A wall around Baghdad the whole way around
I don't know how a wall could protect Baghdad town
But they're building a wall the whole way around
There's a boy in the city
A boy in the city
A boy in the city who wants the wall to come down
There's a fire in his eyes and his dreams are freedom bound
But they're building a wall and it won't come down

There's a war, and it's raging
A war, and it's raging
A war, it is raging and thundering so loud
They could all save themselves if they stopped being so proud
But they're building a wall and the fear's too loud

There's a girl with her momma
A girl with her momma
A girl with her momma asking why, why, why
She never wanted to see her mamma cry, cry, cry
But they're building a wall and no one knows why
There's a man who's on this side
A man who's on that side
A man who's got no where to go
Brother against brother never seemed so friend and foe
But they're building a wall, so there's nowhere to go

There's a fear, you can taste it
A fear, you can taste it
A fear in the air, the kind you hate
Which side do you belong, where will you choose your fate?
Oh, they're building a wall, and it's filled with hate
There's a kid in America
A kid in America
A kid who don't want his people to die no more
The last thing he'd wanna do is leave his family for war
But they're building a wall, today, they built some more
They're building a wall around Baghdad
A wall around Baghdad
A wall around Baghdad the whole way around
No walls could ever seem to save Baghdad town
Yet they built a g****** wall the whole way around
