lyrics

You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here

We've got plenty room to spare
And we've got people who care about you
Yes we've got plenty empty homes
Which are of more use than these poems
And you can lay your head down
We don't care that your skin is brown
You are an ex-patriot
And it's Murdoch who is an immigrant

You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here

Prejudice will start to melt
When your story has been felt
And together we'll start to heal
Cos it's us and not the papers who are real

My government killed your mother
You fled your homeland under cover
You risked your life to reach our shores
We welcome you with open doors

You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here

Refugee camp - born into terror
Collateral damage - just "human error"
You fought back but there's a protest ban
So it's straight out of the camp and into the can

You survived a bullet that was aimed at your head
You fled death threats that were sprayed onto your bed
You were smuggled here on a truck
Arrived at three in the morning smeared in muck

Whilst you sought asylum you slept in the streets
You wandered graveyards remembering minatory sheets
You were found convulsing at an entrance to a park
Your life was saved by a doctor from Iraq

You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here
You're welcome here
