Lyrics & Music by Nora Roman, blues written after 6-4-10 Israeli commando attack on freedom for Gaza Flotilla.
Album: I Belong to No Man's State [2011]

NORA ROMAN

It was truly incredible that Israel would send commandos to kill international activists on a Turkish ship in international waters bringing humanitarian aid, but even more incredible that nothing was done about it before, during or after by the rest of the world's governments & institutions.... Who's insane here?

Israeli commandos boarded a boat
Shame on you, shame on you

Ready to kill some innocent folk
Shame on you, Shame on you

Dressed in black with guns and knives
Shame on you, Shame on you

They rappelled right down and took some lives
Shame on you, Shame on you

Humanitarian aid is now a crime
Shame on you, Shame on you

Try to help the hungry and you'll do some time
Shame on you, Shame on you

Nurses, doctors, students and moms
Shame on you, Shame on you

Bringing toys and medicine, not guns or bombs
Shame on you, Shame on you

International waters with flags flown high
Shame on you, Shame on you

An illegal blockade they were there to defie
Shame on you, Shame on you

Palestinians suffer, Gaza cries
Shame on you, Shame on you

World governments stand by and watch them die..
Shame on you, Shame on you

Checkpoints, snipers, bombs and the wall
Shame on you, Shame on you

Despite it all Palestinians stand tall
Shame on you, Shame on you

Beatings, torture, kids in your jails
Shame on you, Shame on you

But it will end oppression always fails
Shame on you, Shame on you

Zionism is fruit from the poison tree
Shame on you, Shame on you

The Palestinian people will be free

The Palestinian people will be free

The Palestinian people will be free.
