	If I were a refugee, it wouldn't be nice. 
I wouldn't be able to wash very often and all that I 'd eat, is rice. 
 
If i were a refugee, I wouldn't have a bed. 
So when I go to sleep at night, I'd have nowhere to rest my head. 
 
If i were a refugee, I'd be running day and night. 
And any gunshots I would hear, would give me quite a fright. 
 
If I were a refugee, I might get placed in a camp. 
It would be horrible, yucky, wet and damp. 
 
If i were a refugee, I'd want to get a visa. 
To go to Australia or the leaning Tower of Pisa. 
 
But....I'm not a refugee and I have a comfy bed. 
A roof, a house and food and shelter over my head
