All of my life I've heard the storiesHow many thousands of timesHow the kingdom was lost and we had to pay penanceFor our forefathers' crimesHow we'd seen such oppression, wandered the worldWhile empires rose and fellBut one day we'd have peaceWhen we returned to IsraelAnd we died in the pogroms, we died in the CrusadesWe died for some prince to save faceKilled by the Russians, killed by the CatholicsKilled for the Aryan raceBut none of that changes what happened beforeOr the unspeakable things that you do'Cause King David was a butcherAnd so are you'Cause I've been to your jails, I've spoken with ghostsI've heard the unending callsAnd I've seen your machine guns slaughtering childrenBehind your high ghetto wallsAnd just like your friend Mr. De KlerkOne day you will admit it is trueThat King David was a butcherAnd so are youLetras de cancionesAnd you can hide behind your money, you can hide behind historyYou can hide behind Capitol HillAnd all the king's riches and all the king's rabbisAnd the king's orders to killAnd you can say I'm a fascist of I think like an ArabYou can call me a self-loathing JewBut King David was a butcherAnd so are youYou can shake your head slowly, you can walk out in angerYou can say that you don't understandOr in righteous rage you can get in your jet fighterAnd conquer some more holy landBut I have to say this because I care for our futureBecause I know the things that you doBecause King David was a butcher And so are you From Letras Mania
