Select language to translate this lyric
born in a country under a fascist regime
martial law and state of emergency
mass unemployment, depression
poverty and corruption
one day the police came to my door
didn't hang around to find out what for
I'd be as good as dead if I'd stayed
so I ran away
with the police after me I had to leave
not just my home town, the country
money and luck got me out
in one piece almost safe and sound
hunted, used, no human rights
still its better than going back...
hunted, used, no human rights
illegal alien
I came to the west, the place of democracy
where I'd learned the people are born free
they sent me to a refugee camp
while they tried my application
I wasn't allowed wage labour
the only money I got was pocket change
I miss my friends, miss my family
all alone in a strange country
hunted, used, no human rights
still its better than going back...
hunted, used, no human rights
illegal alien
hunted, used, no human rights
still its better than going back...
hunted, used, no human rights
still its better than going back...
hunted, used, no human rights
still its better than going back...
hunted, used, no human rights
illegal alien
