Scaling The Derry Wall

(album: Death Before Dishonor - 1987)

Careless people shot
Innocent people killed
Little children injured
Blood and brain spilled

Scaling the Derry Wall

No conscience for those involved
Freedom their only call
Hiding behind black masks
Scaling the Derry Wall

Scaling the Derry Wall

One way communications
Nobody really cares
Of the soldiers who stand their guard
Protecting while they dare

Scaling the Derry Wall

All mothers sons they volunteer
Unaware of their destiny
Serving for their government
Across the Irish sea

Scaling the Derry Wall

Serving an argument
Created long ago
Who it benefits and who it kills
Nobody wants to know

Scaling the Derry Wall

So if you sign up for a career
And play the governments farce
Take your gun and tell them
Stick it up your arse
