When police came they also hit me Songtext

von Ketil Bjornstad

Ismael,
Just 14 years old
Emerged from behind
The breakwater
In the spanish port of ceuta
With blood running
From his nose
Half a dozen fresh cuts on his arm
And a purple bruise swelling up on his elbow
And a purple bruise swelling up on his elbow

"they have just beaten me up
And taken all my money
When police came they also hit me"
"they have just beaten me up
And taken all my money
When police came they also hit me"

This time he has been lucky
Last month he was dowsed
In lighter fuel
And set on fire
"i woke up with fire on my arms and face
I ran straight into the sea
The man who did it wanted me
To rob for him
But I said no"
To rob for him
But I said no"

"they have just beaten me up
And taken all my money
When police came they also hit me"
"they have just beaten me up
And taken all my money
When police came they also hit me"
