No roots
We got no roots
No roots
Yeh no roots
No roots
Yeh no roots
No roots
No no roots

Peel your eyes to Asia
Got their gods of ancient culture
Donu0027t got much
Got each other
In the mind
Historyu0027s mind
Itu0027s in the fabric
Itu0027s In the family
In the temple
In the diet
In the water
In the jewellery
In the mind
Historyu0027s mind
And what do we got
We got no roots
Nothing to slow us down
Yeh no roots
Yeh no roots
No no no no no na na nah

Scan to Europe
Behind the bad pop
They got herds of culture
Dirt and folk tales
And sexual freedom
The devils walks in childrenu0027s bedrooms
Itu0027s in the valleys
In education
And in the houses
And in design
And in the crafts
In the beaches
Donu0027t got no much
Donu0027t got no much
But they got each other
In the mind
Historyu0027s mind

Look to china
Look To Japan
Look to India
Red India
Itu0027s in the colours
In the bones
In the fires
Itu0027s in the manners
Itu0027s in the clothes
Itu0027s in the sky
Itu0027s in the graves
And in the flags
Donu0027t got no much
But they got each other
What do we got?
We got no roots
No roots
No roots

Eskimo, Congo, Hawaii, Tahiti
North Stroke South Pole
Baltic Artic Fjord

Some village
Somewhere
Not on Discovery
They got bamboo
They got blood
And They got ritual
And We do we got?
We got no roots
Yeh
No roots
But what do we got
We got something
We got something

We got cds, music, dvds, cars and motorways
Television, phones and satellite
We got the bomb
We got the bomb
And we got germs
And boxes
Lots of boxes!
We got wine, meat frozen,
We got electric guitar

toilet paper, coat hooks and
Petrol pumps, petrol pumps, petrol pumps
We got 2000 grams of coffee, hairdressers, pavements, air fresheners, glass blown fruit bowls, lap dancing nurses.
Light switches and dog shows
Posters and packaging, ringtones and labels
Key rings and magnetic dartboards
Shoes and trainers and adverts fit shops that sell other countries roots

And Iu0027m glad we got no roots

No roots
No roots
No roots
This is the future
Rejoice itu0027s no roots
