They say that hes a Syrian\r
His mum was a Palestinian\r
His dad was a notable Christian\r
So whats he doing here?\r
\r
Hes a man with military expertise\r
Im sure that we could use skills like his\r
If you need a dragon slaying hes the bees knees\r
So whats he doing here?\r
\r
George is stuck in the Jungle\r
He cant get past Calais\r
George is stuck in the Jungle\r
Its no place for a patron saint\r
\r
The media are calling him all kinds of names\r
Hes a migrant here to make all kinds of claims\r
Dehumanisation and shame\r
Saying “Whats he doing here?”\r
\r
The prime minister called him a swarm\r
But hes escaping from a brutal war\r
One that were responsible for\r
Thats what hes doing here\r
\r
But George is stuck in the Jungle\r
He cant get past Calais\r
George is stuck in the Jungle\r
Its no place for a patron saint\r
No place for a patron saint\r
\r
Heres here for our help and no mistake\r
Its help we can give and help he needs to take\r
Hes a fellow human being for fucks sake\r
Its what hes doing here\r
\r
Hes here to work while our asylum he seeks\r
He aint here for thirty-seven pounds a week\r
No way to treat a dragon-slayer so to speak\r
Its what were doing here\r
\r
But George is stuck in the Jungle\r
He cant get past Calais\r
George is stuck in the Jungle\r
Its no place for a patron saint\r
No place for a patron saint\r
\r
Stick youre barbed wire and your border guards\r
The solution to this problem aint very hard\r
Stop starting wars in other folks back yards\r
Thats what were doing here\r
\r
Your cross of St George carries a massive taint\r
If you tolerate racism, tolerant you aint\r
Its no way to treat your own patron saint\r
And its what were doing here\r
\r
But George is stuck in the Jungle\r
He cant get past Calais\r
George is stuck in the Jungle\r
Its no place for a patron saint
