Protest Song "Papers"

Today, the english class must  create a protest song on the theme that we wanted. Here, we have Candice and Alexis with a song named "Papers". The subject is on the undocumented migrants. 

Here the music: https://soundcloud.com/alexis-meillan/papers-with-lana-del-candou
Here the lyrics:

It's a way to make them feel good

It's a way to protest as well

we hope that it will happen this afternoon

They hope that they will never have to sleep under the moon

Shall we be bilnd ?

Should they clean their mind ?

Should they love mankind ?

Shall we be blind ?



They are waiting to build their nest

Little papers are flying

Some of them an booby-tropped 

Some of them can escape 

But they just want to undercover




Here the coded messages:

1st Part:

-To have the right to live in France 

-To protest  for their situation

-Waiting for a vote at the assembly

-They will never have to sleep outdoor

-Must we keep our head down to see anything?

-Must they delete this dream of liberty

 

 

2nd part:

-They are waiting to build their home

-The vote is falling

-The government make them go back to their country

-They can’t avoid the authority

-Finally, they have a job

-But they just want to have a home

 

And if you want to make a karaoke, here the instrumental where the song lasts  longer : https://soundcloud.com/alexis-meillan/protest-song
