Paroles: Tribe After Tribe. Senor.

Did they drive you in a car?
did they drop you after dark?
after they spied on your home
and bugged your telephone
and did they leave you on the side of the road?
half dead and alone
does every bullet find a home?

senor, can you tell us where you're heading for senor?
senor, i'm blowing like a leaf out in the storm

did they drop you off at school?
did you learn the golden rule
how to stay upon the rails
and keep the wind in their sails?
did they teach you how to fight?
teach you wrong from right?
and how to kill a man
in the heat of the night?

senor, can you tell us where you're heading for senor?
senor, i'm blowing like a leaf out in the storm

saw the children in the street
naming clouds in the heat
breaking sticks and throwing stones
mother call your child back home
can't you hear the engines drone?
up the road the soldiers come

in the crowd i saw you sigh
senor, come on dry your eyes
senor, come on dry your eyes
senor, come on dry your eyes
senor
senor
senor

are they watching us now?
do you know?
will they be taping this show?
are we in for some surprise?
do you know?
will they be bringing us in dead or alive?

senor, we're blowing like a leaf out in the storm
senor, there's a black car
moving at the bottom on the road
senor, there's a mother
stumbling at the bottom of the road
senor, can you tell us what you came here for
senor, i'm blowing like a leaf out in the storm
senor, can you tell us where we're heading for
senor, check this out
