Suspect Device Inflammable material is planted in my head It's a suspect device that's left 2000 dead Their solutions are our problems They put up the wall On each side time and prime us And make sure we get fuck all They play their games of power They mark and cut the pack They deal us to the bottom But what do they put back? (Chorus:) Don't believe them Don't believe them Don't be bitten twice You gotta suss, suss, suss, suss, suss out Suss suspect device They take away our freedom In the name of liberty Why don't they all just clear off Why won't they let us be They make us feel indebted For saving us from hell And then they put us through it It's time the bastards fell (Chorus) Don't believe them Don't believe them Question everything you're told Just take a look around you At the bitterness and spite Why can't we take over and try to put it right (Chorus) We're a suspect device if we do what we're told But a suspect device can score an own goal I'm a suspect device the Army can't defuse You're a suspect device they know they can't refuse We're gonna blow up in their face State Of Emergency You're looking for something But what could it be? You look for a hero Well don't look at me You look for solutions But there's none you can find You believe in something That's only in your mind You're looking around you But hate has made you blind And you've spent the last ten years of your life In this emergency So please don't just sit there Let's try to break out From all the hatred Suspicion and doubt Try to change your life That is no life at all Try to break down the imaginary wall And if you couldn't be bothered Well then, my friend, you'll fall And spend all the rest of your life In this emergency Here We Are Nowhere Friday night's here What's the scene? Nothing to do Y'know what I mean? Nothing on the telly There is no late-night show No shows in town There is no place to go Here we are nowhere Nowhere left to go Is it a crime To be young Cos every time We have some fun They put us down And tell us that we're wrong Every time they sing the same old song Here we are nowhere Maybe that's where we belong You know it's not But what do we do Don't look at me now I'm looking at you And sitting there Won't change a thing Must we only wait and see What the future will bring Wasted Life I could be a soldier Go out there and fight to save this land Be a people's soldier Paramilitary gun in hand I won't be no soldier I won't take no orders from no-one Stuff their fucking armies Killing isn't my idea of fun (Chorus) They wanna waste my life They wanna waste my time They wanna waste my life And they've stolen it away I could be a hero Live and die for their 'important' cause A united nation Or an independent state with laws And rules and regulations That merely cause disturbances and wars That is what I've got now All thanks to the freedom-seeking hordes (Chorus) I'm not gonna be taken in They said if I don't join I just can't win I've heard that story many times before And every time I threw it out the door Still they come up to me With a different name but the same old face I can see the connection With another time and a different place They ain't blonde-haired or blue-eyed But they think that they're the master race They're nothing but blind fascists Brought up to hate and given lives to waste (Chorus: repeat) No More Of That They never ask us if we want a war Who do they think they're talkin' for Cos we never get no say They have to have it all their way (Chorus:) Oh, we want no more of that You can't poush us under the mat Oh we want no more of that The man who pulls the trigger's not to blame He's only playing their deadly game And he knows he just can't win Or someone else will pull the trigger on him Barbed Wire Love I met you in No Man's Land Across the wire we were holding hands Hearts a-bubble in the rubble It was love at bomb site All you give me is barbed wire love All caught up in barbed wire love Tangled up in barbed wire love Throw my leg over barbed wire love Barbed wire love snags my jeans When I fell it was awful nice Caught when not suspecting vice The night was rife with wasteland life You set my arm alight (Chorus) Blasted by your booby traps I felt the blow in both knee-caps Your eyes did shine Your lips were fine And the device in your pants was out of site (Chorus) White Noise Rastus is a nigger. Thug mugger junkie. Black golly gob. Big horny monkey. Pimp pusher coon. Grinning piccaninnies. Send him home soon. Back to the trees. Black wogs. Black wogs. Face Don't fit. Black wogs. Black wogs. Ain't no Brit. Ahmed is a Paki. Curry coffee queer. Ten to a bed. Flocking over here. Tax-sponging canker. Smelly thieving kids. Ponce greasy wanker. Worse than the yids. Brown wogs. Brown wogs. Face don't fit. Brown wogs. Brown wogs. Ain't no Brit. Stick together we'll all be white me and you The only colours we need are red, right and blue. Paddy is a moron. Spud thick Mick. Breeds like a rabbit. Thinks with his prick. Anything floors him if he can' fight or drink it. Round them up in Ulster. Tow it out and sink it. Green wogs. Green wogs. Face don't fit. Green wogs. Green wogs. Ain't no Brit. If the victim ain't a soldier why should we care? Irish bodies don't count. Life's cheaper over there. Green wogs. Green wogs. Face don't fit. Green wogs. Green wogs. Ain't no Brit. Green wogs. Green wogs. Get 'em boys. Green wogs. Green wogs. Turn up the white noise. Breakout Ain't got no money but I don't give a damn Cos when I got it I spend it as fast as I can Ain't got no worries at least none as I can see Got to make a fast connection then I'll be free (Chorus) Break out and leave this life behind Break out and see what I can find Might lose I'm gonna try my luck Might win don't really give a fuck I've gotta try cos I've gotta know If I'm a winner and the star of the show Can't stand routine for another day Rules and regulations getting in my way (Chorus) Won't let anyone put me down I ain't gonna be nobody's clown Won't be taken in by their promises I'm gonna try on my terms this time So if I can do it you can do it too Why don't you try it you got nothing to lose A boring job living day to day to day Do something different try to break away. (Chorus: twice) Law And Order Everybody's down in the centre of town Doing nothing wrong we're only hangin' around They put you up against the wall Make loud mouthed jokes just to make you feel small Laugh at your appearance and the clothes you wear Call that justice just isn't fair (Chorus) Talking bout their law and order They don't do what they ought to Law and order There's no justice in it None! I had a friend who was lifted by the law Lifted and shifted and dumped on the floor They treated him like shit Kicked him in the head and then laughed when he bled Spat in his face and pulled his hair Call that justice just isn't fair (Chorus) I'm not trying to say we're always right No-one's saying that it's black and white All I'm saying is we don't agree I don't think like you don't think like me I hope you never do And that's the way they try and run this land How they hold you down and keep you in hand You're just a pawn in their game Just another number you ain't got a name Just a little punk y'know they don't care Call that justice just isn't fair (Chorus:) Rough Trade Record boss said we would be a smash Yeah, go straight to Number One He talked of hits and tours and lots of cash And all the time it wasn't on And I believed every word was true Yeah I swallowed every line I believed every word he said And I didn't find out in time (Chorus) We were betrayed, betrayed, betrayed, Betrayed, betrayed by rough trade lies We quit our jobs and got all set to fly Your promises had us riding high But it's dirty rough tough trade we find "Yeah we agreed, but you hadn't signed Sorry, son, gonna have to throw you Our lawyers say we don't even know you Music is money, kids are no-account fools You trade in us, we get betrayed by you (Chorus) And you're sitting there in your London office Snug and warm And you think that you've won but Just remember this is just round one We're gonna do it our way We're gonna make it on our own Because we've found people to trust People who put music first (Chorus) Why can't you tell us the truth? Why did you lie to us? Johnny Was (cover - lyrics unavailable) Alternative Ulster Nothin' for us in Belfast The Pound's so old it's a pity OK, there's the trident in Bangor Then walk back to the city We ain't got nothin' but they don't really care They don't even know you know Just want our money And we can take it or leave it What we need (Chorus) An Alternative Ulster Grab it and change it it's yours Get an Alternative Ulster Ignore the bores and their laws Get an Alternative Ulster Be an anti-security force Alter your native Ulster Alter you native land Take a look where you're livin' You got the Army on your street And the RUC dog of repression Is barking at your feet Is this the kind of place you wanna live? Is this where you wanna be? Is this the only life we're gonna have? What we need is (Chorus) They say they've got control of you But that's not true you know They say they're a part of you And that's a lie you know They say you will never be Free free free Get an Alternative Ulster Alternative Ulster Alternative Ulster Closed Groove Punctuality's a waste of time Now nostalgia is past it's prime History's a thing of the past Being first will never last (Chorus) Beep beep I'm an answering machine I mean to say I say what I mean Beep beep I've got very strong views Plug in any loop tape you choose My one single fault is modesty I'm changing my views consistently Amnesia's a thing I try to forget Who can't kick gambling? Want to bet? (Chorus) The case for racism is black and white If you want world peace you've got to fight Must do what you're told to be free Think what you like - if you agree with me (Chorus) Speak whenever you hear this tone Scream whenever you hear this tone |
