MI
We'd like to help you, the consul said
SI RE
But there's nothing we can do
MI
Well, you knew the risks when you took the job
SI RE
After all you're not a fool
MI
So, don't call me, don't call me
SI RE
I just can't bend the rules
MI
Keep your chin up, I know it's tough
SI RE
Somehow you'll get through."
MI SI RE
It seems the Americans bargain and rescue
MI
But if you get caught you're left to rot
SI RE
Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon
(Refr:)
MI
Under a Beirut Moon
RE RE
Sorry son, there's nothing we can do
MI
Under a Beirut Moon
RE RE
Different rules, we haven't got a clue
MI
We can't be seen to be giving in
SI RE
To these terrorists you see
MI
If we talk with them it would mean the end
SI RE
Of all that we hold dear
MI
So don't call me, don't call me
SI RE
I'm doing all I can
MI
Although it seems from where you sit
SI RE
I don't give a damn."
MI SI RE
Back home they'll remember you in papers, on TV
MI
Because when you're caught you're left to rot
SI RE
Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon
(Refr:)
MI
Under a Beirut Moon
RE RE
Sorry son, there's nothing we can do
MI
Under a Beirut Moon
RE RE
Different rules, we haven't got a clue
MI SOL RE
And though you dream of being free
MI SOL RE
There's not much hope that I can see
SI RE
Under a Beirut, under a Beirut Moon
MI
Now just today on the news I saw
SI RE
A hostage walking free
MI
He talked of how it came about
SI RE
He gained his liberty
MI
He said, don't give up, don't give up
SI RE
Argue, beg and plead
MI
Keep the pressure up, don't let it drop
SI RE
Somehow you'll get free
MI SI RE
He said the Americans would bargain and rescue
MI
But when Brits get caught they're left to rot
SI RE
Under a Beirut, under the Beirut Moon
MI
