Lyrics

[Outro]
Mo Chara, you stand before us in Westminster Magistrate's Court
Charged under the Terrorism Act of 2000
How do you plead?
Neamhchiontach
[Verse 1]
Maidin mhaith, your honour
An innocent bystander
Os comhair na cúirte
Níl mé buartha
They can try slander
M'ainm of high standards
Ní mise an chéad Éireannach sa seomra seo a bhí on trial
On trumped up lies and charges
This started ag Coachella
Ná labhair faoin Phailaistín fella,
Sampla eile déanta
This happens if a band tries to tell ya faoi Gaza
These lads are just nasty
Sentence them go gasta
Paddy terrorist bastards
Free Mo Chara, free, free Mo Chara
[Chorus]
There's a carnival coming to a town near you
Kneecap vs the Crown, so come here, you!
Step up!
And view their new attraction, circus of distractions
Away from their actions is where they will steer you
[Verse 2]
Móglaí Bap, please take the stand
Your honour, I'll lay out exactly what has happened
An rud ceanann céanna a tharla le Gerry Conlon
Is cé raibh go raibh se difirúil, they've got something in common
Is Éireannaigh iad ar fad, getting done for doing nothing
Anois éist gan aon cheist, this whole thing is a mess
Ag iarraidh locht a fháil ar dhaoine for speaking with their chest
Investigate the people join armies far and wide
Instead of the People who oppose a fuckin' genocide
Free Mo Chara, free, free Mo Chara
[Chorus]
There's a carnival coming to a town near you
Kneecap vs the Crown, so come here, you!
Step up!
And view their new attraction, circus of distractions
Away from their actions is where they will steer you
Free Mo Chara, free, free Mo Chara
[Verse 3]
Rud amháin nach raibh páirteach i do moot
D'aimsigh siad winky agus gunnaí ina bhút
Agus dar leis an chúirt nior admhaigh siad aon bhuairt
Murach sceimhlitheoir eisean
What's the point of any confession?
That's double standards of the highest degree
I think it has something to do with the subjects we speak
It might be the Fenian in me, but I think it's quite clear to see
The Brits are at it again
Repeatin' history
[Verse 4]
Gach lá sa nuacht ach ní mise nó Kneecap an scéal
Tá cinedhíothú ag tarlú, mar gheall ar Diabhal Israel
Sábhailteacht, cúram, gan fáil ná bác le mo thuairim
Cunts lofa suaracha eile gur chóir a bheidh in sa chúirt seo
Seachas mise
Distraction is the mission
International law is gone out the window
Fuckin' listen!
All this killing, you're complicit
History will remember you pieces of shit and you'll never be forgiven
Free Mo Chara, free, free Mo Chara
[Chorus]
There's a carnival coming to a town near you
Kneecap vs the Crown, so come here, you!
Step up!
And view their new attraction, circus of distractions
Away from their actions is where they will steer you
[Chorus]
Carnival coming to a town near you
Kneecap vs the Crown, so come here, you!
Step up!
And view their new attraction, circus of distractions
Away from their actions is where they will steer you
