Alternative Ulster - Stiff Little Fingers

Nothin' for us in Belfast

The Pound’s so old that’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

They just want (our) money

But we can take it or leave it

What we need is…

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 your 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…

They say they’re a part of you

But that’s not true you know

They say they’ve got control of you

And that’s a lie you know

They say you will never be

Free

Alternative Ulster.
