A tribute to Belfast Punk, a song about solidarity.
lyrics
Music scene SOS
Pick up signal, we're in distress
Music scene SOS
Run down by corporate, fickle press
Blaming other people for not ever breaking through
Whining how the bigwigs never spared a thought for you
Complaining that there isn’t hope won’t help to make things right
Just get up off your fuckin’ hole and join us in the fight!
Keep the faith
As long as there’s breath in our lungs we’ll stick it to the corporate scum
Take back the scene, unite and win
Mods, hippies, rastas, punks and skins
There’s one solution, one way out
We gotta beat the bastards beat them now
Complaining that there isn’t hope won’t help to make things right
Just get up off your fuckin’ hole and join us in the fight
One solution, one way out
We gotta beat the bastards, beat them now
BEAT THE BASTARDS, BEAT THEM NOW!
