"Ibrahim"
-Eric

(Album: The of Dreams)

Hey Ibrahim, tell me what do you of Australia?
Do our beautiful desert sunsets fill you wonder?
As the sky catches fire, and the trees and the mountains colour
But I guess the view from this side of the barbed-wire's better

So Ibrahim, can you tell me, why did you come
What dream were you chasing and what did you to find here?
Did you from your own native land because your life was in danger?
Or were the reasons much more mundane, just and hunger?

Wrong path, wrong choice, creed, wrong culture
Wrong place, wrong time, wrong dream and colour

You see Ibrahim, there's something I've meaning to tell you
Being hungry and poor bestows no special status you
We won't send you back, if you can prove they'd imprison or you
But if you're just going back home to starve, I'm afraid we can't you

You see Ibrahim, you've become a bit of a
world's full of refugees fleeing poverty, war and oppression
So to take in queue-jumpers you, well it's out of the question
It would give the world's and poor the wrong impression

Wrong path, wrong choice, wrong creed, culture
place, wrong time, wrong dream and wrong colour

I'm afraid Ibrahim, it's time to be candid
You had Buckley's right from the moment you landed
Already to many a threat and a danger you were
And all because you the prophet Mohammed

You didn't count Ibrahim, on opportunism
Our leaders knew to many Australians, the very word "Muslim"
Meant Al-Quaeda, Hammas, the Taliban, and
And that's why you and your family are up in prison.

Wrong path, choice, wrong creed, wrong culture
place, wrong time, wrong dream and wrong colour

So Ibrahim, me what do you think of Australia?
Do our beautiful desert sunsets fill you wonder?
As the sky catches fire, and the and the mountains change colour
But I guess the view from this side of the much better
Yes I guess the from this side of the barbed-wire's much better

"Buckley's Chance" - colloquialism meaning "no chance whatsoever".
The phrase came into use in the 1890's, although it's are now uncertain.
