No one hides, no one runs,
Nothing gonna save you when the phajaan comes,
Stay very still,
Past your lips, past your gums,
Prayer means nothing when the phajaan comes,
So nobody will, baby,
Nobody will.
No one cries, no one dares.
Noose goes up but no one cares,
So keep your head low,
One by one, two by two,
Phajaan comes for all of you,
We’ve all got to go, baby,
We’ve all got to go.
Thin, frayed twine holds us in our place.
Disappointed heroes stare us in the face.
Thin, frayed twine holds us in our place.
Disappointed heroes stare us in the face.
One jerked his body free,
And ran toward the open sea,
Like many before you,
But like all the ones before,
The wind, the wash, the war,
So many before you
So many before you
Thin, frayed twine holds us in our place. (I know)
Disappointed heroes stare us in the face.
Thin, frayed twine holds us in our place. (I know)
Disappointed heroes stare us in the face.
