(then next verse goes as first)
I just took a walk through the checkpoint
Past columns of poor Arab sons
They queue through the day for a chance to make pay
For something to put in their mouths
He can't sleep at night without gunfire
The lullaby puts him to sleep

They're too Fbusy in Cmtalk of love
D#Why should they cC#ontemplate fA#ear?
(and so the next goes quite as the first verse)
Everyone meets in the cramped city streets
Hipsters of Zion collide
To talk music and dross
At the sign of The Cross

The Emgirl lets herD#dim uniform Emslip
The Emboy cracks a D#dimjoke, he is sEmweet
