[Intro]
G C Em D C
[Verse]
G C
These sterile walls, this black ring binder
Em D C G
Detention centres offer grim reminders of the crime
C
And jumbled words persist in running through your head
Em D C
‘Asphyxiation’, ‘Litigation’, ‘Death’, ‘Duress’, ‘G4S’.
[Chorus]
G C
What does it mean to you? What does it mean to me?
Em D C
No Prosecution, disregarded pleas for solidarity
G C
Sick of ‘borders’, sick of ‘nations’,
Em
Sick of racist immigration policy
D C G
Disregarded pleas for solidarity.
[Verse]
G B
You make your case and you go home
Em C
You drink some wine and watch TV
Cm G
And you go to sleep alone
B Em
But in the darkness you can hear the violent deportations
C Cm
Jimmy screaming for his life on a British Airways flight.
[Chorus]
G C
What does it mean to you? What does it mean to me?
Em D C
No Prosecution, disregarded pleas for solidarity
G C
Sick of ‘borders’, sick of ‘nations’,
Em
Sick of racist immigration policy
D C Cm Em
Disregarded pleas for solidarity.
