So much for the change, the re-arranging and politicians declared dead So much for the troops forced out of Ireland, the police abolished? I read that things had gone too far and awareness had caused concern at the top But their backbone must not crack, so their city will not stop
We need a whole new ploy to direct our motives and anger Force what we see as right but the system holds our banners We need that new ploy, direct our feelings and anger Force what we know as right, make our feelings turn into action
Meanwhile senile morans are shitting bricks because they know the people have learnt Just who's who and who funds what. It's time those bastards tables burned
But it has all been said in another time And if I have sung it once then it is a thousand times That if we don't do it now we are never gonna break Free from the oppression that makes us hate Free from their law, their hypocrisy From their war that turns our sunny day grey To free all the animals locked in a cage Slowly going mad with fits of rage
It's time to overcome 1984 Forget that fairytale, slam shut the door It's time for reality, not false hopes It's time to show them who's the joke It's time to take, it's not too late So much for the changing, re-arranging, everything else we said So much for their scum forced out of Ireland they increased the pressure instead If things have gone too far then action will prove fatal to their props Yes that backbone might not crack, but their city tears apart!
