[Verse 1]
These sterile walls, this black ring binder
Detention centres offer grim reminders of the crime
And jumbled words persist in running through your head "Asphyxiation," "Litigation," "Death," "Duress," "G4S"
[Chorus]
What does it mean to you? What does it mean to me?
No prosecution, disregarded pleas for solidarity
Sick of "borders," sick of "nations," sick of racist immigration policy
Disregarded pleas for solidarity
[Verse 2]
You make your case and you go home
You drink some wine and watch TV
And you go to sleep alone
But in the darkness you can hear the violent deportations
Jimmy's screaming for his life on a British Airways flight
[Chorus]
What does it mean to you? What does it mean to me?
No prosecution, disregarded pleas for solidarity
Sick of "borders," sick of "nations," sick of racist immigration policy
Disregarded pleas for solidarity
[Outro, spoken]
No legal action will be taken over the death of an Angolan man who died while being deported from Heathrow in 2010. Jimmy Mubenga collapsed while being restrained by three guards from the private security firm G4S. The charity Inquest has described the ruling as "shameful."
