Tango Sierra - Maher Arar
Born in the country, born out of strife
Born in the place where you nearly lost your life
Were you there in the morning, New York City, J.F.K.,
when they pulled you aside, and they wanted you to pay?
Did you get to make your phone call?
Did you get to call your wife?
Did they give you a reason?
Did they ever tell you why?
What was it like to be there
deep in the night? and were you scared?
Can you describe? and do you dare?
Torn from the country, torn from your wife
Torn from the place where you came to make a life
Were you there in the morning laying in your dirty grave?
Did they hang a lickin' on you to see what you would say?
Did they give you a warning? Did they ever tell you why?
Did they beat you with a cable? Make you tell a lie?
What was it like to be there
deep in the night? and were you scared?
What do you say? and do you dare?
I'm amazed that you survived it
can't believe it's true
I'm amazed that they could do that
I'm afraid it's true
Who will be next? Who will it be?
Will it be you, or will it be me?
Who will be next? Who will it be?
How many others are suffering?
Born in the place where you nearly lost your life
Were you there in the morning, New York City, J.F.K.,
when they pulled you aside, and they wanted you to pay?
Did you get to make your phone call?
Did you get to call your wife?
Did they give you a reason?
Did they ever tell you why?
What was it like to be there
deep in the night? and were you scared?
Can you describe? and do you dare?
Torn from the country, torn from your wife
Torn from the place where you came to make a life
Were you there in the morning laying in your dirty grave?
Did they hang a lickin' on you to see what you would say?
Did they give you a warning? Did they ever tell you why?
Did they beat you with a cable? Make you tell a lie?
What was it like to be there
deep in the night? and were you scared?
What do you say? and do you dare?
I'm amazed that you survived it
can't believe it's true
I'm amazed that they could do that
I'm afraid it's true
Who will be next? Who will it be?
Will it be you, or will it be me?
Who will be next? Who will it be?
How many others are suffering?
