There are murders that we must account for Bloody deeds have been done in my name Criminal acts we must pay for And our children will shoulder the blame
I'm a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame
As a nation we're following blindly No-one stops to question why Our money's supporting an army And a boy in Soweto dies
I'm a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame
Must we go on ignoring forever The cries of an African son There's a soldier's hand on the trigger But it's we who are pointing the gun
I'm a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame
