Luyện nghe bài hát Another Imperial Day

You could be
on a october night
for the moment to be
swimming the freezing river
holding a plastic bag of belongings out of the water
climbing up the banks on the side
hiding in the so cold
you hardly show as a target
on the heat seeking gear of the patrol
but you made it, you're one over
sleeping on a in a railway station
in the of Europe
haven't eaten anything for two days
but where there is a will there's allways be a way

And door is guarded
and every guard money
so the women are bought and kept and raped and as slaves
because the family borrowed the man
and the man has allways got to be
for the deals of the and the fake IDs
and the passports all locked away
While the women are working and gagging on their knees
and somewhere in the of terminal 3
in the clogged-up corridors of the authorities
families with the wrong bits of paper
are waiting to be sent back to where came from
escorted by officials out the tarmac
with their wrist bound tight with cable ties behind backs

It's dawn and there's fog in harbour
and the guard's on his break and the dogs are chained by the
three figures come out behind the cranes
across the train tracks
climb a Panamanian freighter headed for the isle of grain
find a place to hide in a of containers
another payload of trade because
goods are to move but not people
oil is free to but not people
jobs are free to but not people
money is to move but not people

And today got a man hauled off a truck in the port of calais
we watch him in as they lead him away
his battered suitcase
but his betrays him, lost and scared and defeated
sitting in the back of the white authority van
well, do any of us come from, it's pretty hard to say
while high in the sky us tonight
the are heading the other way, south and east
into the red crimson sunrise of another imperial day
