Heaven's not a place in China

Heaven's not a place in China
but there it seems to be.

Every morning on the front page.
big type headlines seen before;
another land locks up the free mind,
students try to find a door.

Heaven's not a place in China
but there it seems to be.
Heaven's not a place in China
but there it seems to be.

Followed by the TV nations,
some soft targets for the corps,
standing in the name of freedom,
beaten in the name of law.
Every morning we're reminded,
just to think about ourselves.
Shocked by silence - switch the channels
that's the music for the show.
