There are murders that we must account for Bloody deeds have been done in my name Criminal acts we must pay for And our children will shoulder the blame
(Chorus)
I`m a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame (Repeat)
As a nation we`re following blindly No-one stops to question why Our money`s supporting an army And a boy in Soweto dies
(Chorus)
I`m a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame (Repeat)
Must we go on ignoring forever The cries of an African son There`s a soldier`s hand on the trigger But it`s we who are pointing the gun
(Chorus)
I`m a British subject, not proud of it While I carry the burden of shame (Repeat)
