Barricades and Broken Dreams |
I’m an SAS hit squad assassin. |
Protector of the state |
Protecting those in power from the terrorist cowards. |
Elimination’s the game |
Fulfilling Government aims and regulations. |
Our political war against you |
We are the enemy that’s plain to see; |
we’re watching you’re every move |
Self disciplined? |
Who dares shall win? |
Terrifying? |
Or am I??? |
The man next door? |
Your brother in law? |
Who’s away working on the oilrigs? |
The long distance lorry driver from on the corner? |
No one seems to know who he is |
I could be the meter reader, or the temporary postman. |
Pushing greetings |
through the family door? |
That’s for us to know and you to guess, but make no mistakes, this is war |
Self disciplined? |
Killing machine? |
But that’s not the same? |
That’s what you |
think? |
Well here’s a message to you, you are wrong |
Can’t you see you head strong super gobshite git? |
That as your bullets rip a mother’s heart? |
Each time you kill or maim again and again, your actions ignite a spark? |
The flames then burn so fiercely, fuelled by anger from those who have nothing |
left! |
Contradictions — superstitions — old traditions, in Northern Ireland your |
Government’s guilty of theft |
