Each Dollar A Bullet - Stiff Little Fingers (僵硬小指)[00:00:00]

Written by：Jake Burns[00:00:02]

Oh it must be so romantic[00:00:19]

When the fighting's over there[00:00:22]

And they're passing round the shamrock[00:00:24]

And you're all filled up with tears[00:00:26]

For the love of dear old Ireland[00:00:28]

That you've never even seen[00:00:31]

You throw in twenty dollars[00:00:33]

And sing wearing of the green[00:00:35]

Each dollar a bullet[00:00:38]

Each victim someone's son[00:00:40]

And Americans kill irishmen[00:00:43]

As surely[00:00:45]

As if they fired the gun[00:00:47]

Now you've never stood on belfast's streets[00:00:52]

And heard the bombs explode[00:00:55]

Or hid beneath the blankets[00:00:57]

When there's riots down the road[00:00:59]

No you've never had your best friend die[00:01:01]

Or lost a favorite son[00:01:04]

But you'll stand there and tell us[00:01:06]

Just what we're doing wrong[00:01:08]

Each false word a bullet[00:01:10]

Each victim someone's son[00:01:13]

And englishmen kill irishmen[00:01:15]

As surely[00:01:17]

As if they fired the gun[00:01:19]

From the minute that you're born you're told[00:01:24]

To hate the other side[00:01:26]

They're not like us they're not the same[00:01:28]

We know because we're right[00:01:31]

But can't you see we're all the same[00:01:33]

There is no right and wrong[00:01:35]

Why can't we stop and realize[00:01:37]

We've hated too much too long[00:01:40]

Each old lie a bullet[00:01:42]

Each victim someone's son[00:01:44]

And irishmen kill irishmen[00:01:46]

As surely[00:01:49]

As if they fired the gun[00:01:50]

How can you convince yourself[00:01:56]

That what you do is right[00:01:58]

When people are dying there[00:02:00]

Night after night[00:02:03]

Don't you ever wonder[00:02:05]

Why it still goes on[00:02:07]

The hopes and fears and all the tears[00:02:09]

Are buried in your ground[00:02:12]

Buried in your ground[00:02:13]

Each rumour a bullet[00:02:36]

Each victim someone's son[00:02:38]

And careless talk kills irishmen[00:02:40]

As surely[00:02:43]

As if words fired the gun[00:02:44]

Well it's lasted for so long now[00:02:52]

And so many have died[00:02:54]

It's such a part of my own life[00:02:57]

Yet it leaves me mystified[00:02:59]

How a people so intelligent[00:03:01]

Friendly kind and brave[00:03:04]

Can throw themselves so willingly[00:03:07]

Into an open grave[00:03:09]

Each new day a bullet[00:03:11]

Each victim someone's son[00:03:14]

And ignorance kills irishmen[00:03:16]

As surely[00:03:19]

As if we fired the gun[00:03:21]
