Lyrics

There's nothin' for us in Belfast The Pound's old and that's a pity Okay, there's the Trident in Bangor And then you walk back to the city We ain't got nothin', but they don't really care They don't even know you know They just want money We can take it or leave it What we need Is an alternative Ulster? Grab it and change it, it's yours Get an alternative Ulster Ignore the bores and their laws Get an alternative Ulster Be an anti-security force Alter your native Ulster Alter your native land Take a look where you're livin' You got the Army on the street And the RUC dog of repression Is barking at your feet Is this the kind of place you wanna live? Is this where you wanna be? Is this the only life we're gonna have What we need? Is an alternative Ulster? Grab it and change it, it's yours Get an alternative Ulster Ignore the bores and their laws Get an alternative Ulster Be an anti-security force Alter your native Ulster Alter your native land And they say they're a part of you And that's not true, you know They say they've got control of you And that's a lie, you know They say you will never be free Free Free Alternative Ulster Alternative Ulster Alternative Ulster Alternative Ulster Oh, you've done it now
