Five thousand children no foreigner could rule
Were slaughtered in the sleet when following a fool
To keep the people friendly, to keep the lion tame
They used the paper and the pen, the sword and the flame

From the year of the tourist to the year of the sheep
For the morality of the nation and the king's peace to keep
For sound. economics and common sense
They turned overpopulation into a wilderness

Now the hills are kept empty for sophisticated eyes
The picture on the postcard is the consolation prize
Oh my, look at the view!
The hills are kept empty for me and for you
