Displaced Person Songtext
von Dave Davies

A displaced person in a displaced land
I lost my home, lost everything you can
Tried so hard, doing the best I can
But where I am is where I stand

Your eyes are filled with greed and hate
But wherever you wander is a holy place
Where my heart loves is a sacred place
A displaced person, I know your pain

I don′t understand
I'm a fugitive in my own land

Don′t wanna do what they wanna
Don't wanna do what they say
Don't wanna do what they wanna
Just wanna get their way
Can you see through them?
Can you see what they do?
C′mon brother, jump in
C′mon mama, swim


The toughest race of the human face
Will not be denied in these changing times
The biggest battle is fought in the heart
Follow (?)

A displaced person, come hear the call
Destroy illusion with just your heart
On the astral and mental planes
Radiate and meditate
From the mountains and to the land
Build the future with a loving, caring hand

I don't understand
I′m a fugitive in my own land

Don't wanna do what they wanna
Don′t wanna do what they say
Don't wanna do what they wanna
Just wanna get their way
Can you see through them?
Can you see what they do?
C′mon brother, jump in
C'mon mama, swim
