david rovics - watch the buildings crumble lyrics

[verse 1]
i heard them marching, chanting “k!ll them all.”
i saw millions of people trapped behind ghetto walls
i saw the soldiers shooting every friday afternoon
i saw some exposed to sickness with others made immune
i saw the tear gas in al+aqsa, eyes open wide
i saw the mob attack the motorist and beat him till he died
i heard the generals lying, i saw the tanks moving in
i heard the settlers shouting “let the k!lling begin.”

[refrain]
look up above, hear the ear+splitting sound
watch the buildings crumble to the ground
see the planes in the sky they’re by the sea, so much like new york city
[verse 2]
i heard the wailing, voices of the dying and forlorn for the kids who couldn’t get out and those who weren’t warned
i saw all the schools and hospitals in pieces there still from the last time the idf came to maim and k!ll
i saw the brave children with piles of rocks facing tanks demolishing city blocks
what’s left of the grove but some sap?
as they try to wipe palestine off the map

[refrain]
look up above, hear the ear+splitting sound
watch the buildings crumble to the ground
see the planes in the sky they’re by the sea, so much like new york city

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
i heard the dnc and all the republicans too, pledge allegiance to netanyahu
i heard the president starting the story with “rockets from a ghetto,” where people live in rubble and starve from an embargo
i saw a whole lot of crocodile tears on display for the zillionth time
i heard politicians say “can both sides please de+escalate?” on one side are the occupied, the other the apartheid state

[refrain]
look up above, hear the ear+splitting sound
watch the buildings crumble to the ground
see the planes in the sky they’re by the sea, so much like new york city

[outro]
i heard them marching, chanting “k!ll them all.”
i saw millions of people trapped behind ghetto walls
