Burn down your walls and palisades

Stop wasting time in this crusade

No black or white we're all the same

Stop it now - stop this awful game

There's a loner on the run

The distance shrinks and then he's done

He lacks the cash and fame

He's begging for a change

What the hell is going on

We collapse your fence and walls

This is an odyssey but we protest here for equality

Burn down your walls and palisades

Stop wasting time in this crusade

No black or white we're all the same

Stop it now - stop this awful game

There's a stranger on the run

They're chasing him with knives and guns

The reason's his black skin

He knows that he can't win

What the hell is going on

Fuck racism fuck you all

This is an odyssey but we protest here for equality

Burn down your walls and palisades

Stop wasting time in this crusade

No black or white we're all the same

Stop it now - stop this awful game

Burn down your walls and palisades

Stop wasting time in this crusade

No black or white we're all the same

Stop it now - stop this awful game

Stop this game

And start a brand new day
