Stiff Little Fingers - Beirut Moon lyrics
"We'd like to help you." the consul said "But there's nothing we can do Well, you knew the risks when you took the job After all you're not a fool So, don't call me, don't call me I just can't bend the rules Keep your chin up, I know it's tough Somehow you'll get through." It seems the Americans bargain and rescue But if you get caught you're left to rot Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon (Chorus:) Under a Beirut Moon Sorry son, there's nothing we can do Under a Beirut Moon Different rules, we haven't got a clue "We can't be seen to be giving in To these terrorists you see If we talk with them it would mean the end Of all that we hold dear So don't call me, don't call me I'm doing all I can Although it seems from where you sit I don't give a damn." Back home they'll remember you in papers, on TV Because when you're caught you're left to rot Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon (Chorus) And though you dream of being free There's not much hope that I can see Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon Now just today on the news I saw A hostage walking free He talked of how it came about He gained his liberty He said, don't give up, don't give up Argue, beg and plead Keep the pressure up, don't let it drop Somehow you'll get free He said the Americans would bargain and rescue But when Brits get caught they're left to rot Under a Beirut, under the Beirut Moon |
