Song Words
Verse 1
Why are we sad?
We should be happy
We should be glad.
You’re trying I know
But you’re trading in you’re hours just to pay off your homes.
Are you wide?
This is out of control.
Verse 2
My Éire’s in chains look around, she isn’t the same.
T’is normal we’re told, but you’re dealing with a traitor they have turned on their own.
RTE propaganda control
