Why is Daddy not here?
Are you crying?
Why?
Does he still love me?
Will you take care of me?
If you both love me so
Why don't you love each other
Mummy's gone missing
Daddy's on fire
Daddy's on fire
Daddy's on fire

If you like this song, check out his new album "Secret, profane & sugarcane".
It went to no. 13 in the US album charts and it is absolutely wonderful! He is still kicking like in 1979.

If those were the lyrics they would be meaningless bullshit. Fortunately they're not - see micksumbling for correct version.

Hong Kong is up for grabs, London is full of Arabs, and we could be in Palestine, over and by the Chinese land, with the fires from the Mersey and the Thames
Oh, to be able to write lyrics like these!

Hey actually wrote
"overrun by the Chinese line, with the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne"
ie the very small and lonely colonial holding of Hong Kong and the British garrison there.
