Refugee

It's good of you to ask me sir
 How I spend my days
 Water glass and ladders sir
 Working for my pay
 Back home I saw a future sir
 Learnt my father's trade But here that counts for nothing sir
 Paradise betrayed
 Looking through the windows
 All your world to see
 To you I'm just another refugee
 My mother needs the money sir
 It's hard to make ends meet
 Two more children still in school
 Hungry mouths to feed
 Looking through the windows
 All your world to see
 To you I'm just another refugee
 Now this country is my home
 This land of auctioneers
 Cast your eye upon me sir
 What price the dreams that brought me here?
 Looking through the windows
 All your world to see
 Forever just another refugee.
