"Ibrahim"
-Eric

(Album: The of Dreams)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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