East Timor, Timor
Timor, Timor
Timor, Timor
Going on and on and on and on
This is going on and on and on and on now
I said it once and say it twice
I want to save your time
Save time, save time
It’s alright, it’s alright ‘Cause the system never fails
The good guys are in power
And the bad guys are in jail
It’s alright, it’s alright
Just as long as we can vote
We live in democracy
And that’s what we promote
Isn’t it? Isn’t it?
Oooh…
Isn’t it? Isn’t it?
Oooh…
It’s alright, it’s alright
If the news say half the truth
Hearing what we want’ s
The secret of eternal youth
It’s alright, it’s alright,
If the planet’s split in three ‘Cause I’ll keep on selling records
And you’ve got your MTV
If we forget about ’em
Don’t worry
If they forget about us
Then hurry
How about a people who don’t matter anymore?
East Timor
Timor, Timor
It’s alright, it’s alright
They won’t show it all on TV
So we won’t really know it
Just by watching BBC
It’s alright, it’s alright
For our flag we die or kill
As long as we don’t know
We’d do it just to pay the bills
If we forget about ’em
Don’t worry
If they forget about us
Then hurry
How about a people who don’t matter anymore?
East Timor
Timor, Timor
Let’s keep tanning while sunny
They’ll risk our hides to make their money
Now don’t you find that funny?
If we forget about ’em
Don’t worry
If they forget about us
Then hurry
How about a people who don’t matter anymore?
East Timor
Timor, Timor
