IF ever I had a country in this galaxy : XLII - XLIII
XLII
IF ever I had a country in this galaxy
And if ever by no stretch of the imagination I were the Minister of Information
I'd make it my sworn duty to pin up on every door long lists of the crimes of hypocrisy
Like which nations carried out nuclear tests to pollute the air and seas far from their country
Like which nation talks tough about maintaining the peace with nuclear thunder war after war in history
Like which nation actually used the fission bomb over civilian cities and the never-ending lists of casualty
That is, if ever by no stretch of the imagination I were the Minister of Information

Who made it possible after the demise of Colonialism now nearly half a century
That this same country shackles an entire people under the guise of preserving its inalienability
That is, if ever by no stretch of the imagination I were the no double-speak Press Secretary
And even if I never ever had in this galaxy no country
