Seven Days Torture
There's a balanced view on the Nine O'Clock News It's the BBC - it must be true Sinn Féin are on News At Ten It's lip-reading time again. British Justice is the best in the world Thon Carmen Proetta is quite a girl Soldier F can fair handle a gun Who needs a jury when you've got The Sun. So open up your eyes You can see right through the lies No matter what they say It's seven days torture on the PTA. When you stand up for democracy You have to take some liberties Silence politicians, censor the press A license to kill for the SAS. And the Branch open mail and they tap the phones It's nice to know that we're not alone. They protect us from the commies and micks They should lock them all up like the Birmingham Six. Chorus The Europeans have got a bloody cheek You can't get confessions in less than a week. But she won't give in, she's gonna fight Their European Court of Human Rights. And that Cathal Daly is such a nice man I'd like to kiss him on the hand. John Hume talks nothing but sense In English, Irish, Latin and French. Chorus Copyright © 1988 Gerry Mulvenna
