Boxing Day 2004. (The Tsunami)

by Albert Watson

Where was God on Boxing Day,
You will hear some people say.
In the same place, as the day before,
when the birth of his Son, we chose to ignore.

Where was God on Boxing Day,
You may have heard some people say.
In the same place, when we with our armies,
killed many more, than a hundred tsunamis

Where was God on Boxing day,
Did you, hear those people say.
In the same place, contemplating the dead,
our grain mountains, could have made them some bread.

Where was God on Boxing Day
can you hear those people say,
In the same place, watching children with spades,
burying their parents, who suffered with aids.

Where was God on Boxing Day,
I too, have heard those people say
In the same place, perhaps deep in thought
possibly weeping, for those we abort.

So where was man on Boxing Day
steeped in sin, no time to pray,
and when the great tsunami came,
we said it's God, let him take the blame.
