about

I spent some time working in The UAE. Although it was in many ways a very beautiful place and I made many friends it was also bewildering. How could such a wealthy place be so stratified......this challenged all my conceptions about right and wrong

lyrics

I went down to Sandy Town
I was hoping to pay my way
But coin paid out in the dark of night
Turned to ash in the break of day

See thise tall towers shine so brightly
Built of tears and bones and blood
See those camps of labouring men
With dreams doing no one no good


See the maids of Sandy Town
Caught like sad little birds in lime
Girls gone dead behind the eyes
Just serving out their time

When you close your eyes
Do you dare to dream of home
Of your own sweet child
Growing up alone

I've been this whole wide world around
And I know what's right and wrong
See those slaves in Sandy town
They ain't singing no redemption songs

When you close your eyes
Do you dare to dream of home
Of your own sweet child
Growing up alone
Of Mama and Papa and
Your own sweet child
And home
And home


When I get out of CSandy Town
And my working days are done
I'll be washing down my tainted soul
