he knew the only way to freedom was by this alone
he knew that western promises are made of silk not stone
deep in his bones, heard the screams of dying souls
knew a bullet in its in time and place would change the globe
young asher, black hair, dark eyes
born outside the city walls born to struggle born to fight
and see his people rise and see the ships come in
despite the men with rotten teeth with empires and schemes
started as a spy smuggled guns and made his moves
from the doorway of the shop the british calling dirty jew
limey bastards, fit inside a casket send em back to england with their head gone backwards
asher wanted vengeance, he followed jabotinsky
knew how to use a rifle and how to shoot a pistol
knew the smell of evil, he fought the sons of darkness
the sunburned khaki soldiers made a perfect target
the world war was winding up, and the good guys won
churchill stalin roosevelt lounging in the sun
divvy up the spoils, lines across the map
you can take a piece of this i'll have a piece of that
the british in their compound just off jaffa road
set the jews curfew and where they couldnt go
a rainy night in march the sun was blocked by clouds
asher and the etzel snuck in unannounced
the irgunists had guns, the irgunists had bombs
the british had the money, the etzel had g-d
asher caught a slug, took aim shot back
saw a british soldier caught a bullet in his hat
then everything went black, his body in a bag
they dropped it at his parents house and left it on the steps
he sacrificed his years, he died a hero's death,
cut down so young, but died with no regrets
