"Ibrahim"
-Eric

(Album: The of Dreams)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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