This IS a Rebel Song

[Fawkes]

(spoken) This IS a rebel song

(heavy guitar starts)

From the H-blocks
To the motherfuckin' dirty lobsterbacks
Tell me Bono where's the glory in just givin' up
And lettin' a foreign fucker rule now blow up the Stock
Exchange, It's a nice idea but sadly it'll never work
Until Westminster's gone from Derry to Cork
I support Palestine and look at me I ain't Arab
It's the same here I don't need to be Irish to be carin'
But I know what you mean when you see a guy wearin'
An IRA shirt on St. Patty's Day "ohh he's so noble and darin'"
When they think it stands for "Ireland's Really Awesome" get the fuck with it man
Don't go wear it unless you trully support the program
Do you even have a single idea who is Bobby Sands?
You've probably never even heard of the Black and Tans
They're those bastards who murdered innocent football fans
Do you even know who the GAA is? let's see a show of hands
It's just sad how this is a sectarian feud
Fuck Catholicism and Protestantism
Oh, sorry, 'm I being rude?
I don't care if they're Arab, Wiccas, or Jews
If they fight for freedom I'm on their side
Even if our political ideologies collide
Hey, England wake up, the Orange kill as much as the Greens
Why is it for you the UVF can't be seen?
I mean, Buckingham Palace was practically painted in blood
Let's burn it to the ground and bury the Queen in the mud

Chorus: Ohh Bomb the LHA Forever strong the IRA
Fuck you Tony Blair let's burn the Palace to disrepair
Bomb the LHA forever strong the IRA
Fuck you Tony Blair let's put the Palace in disrepair

Now I'm not a big fan of the IRA
But they're the only ones who don't sit on their asses all day
I know the enemy of you enemy ain't always your friend
But if they're the only ones doin' anything god fuckin' speed to them
Or in Bono's own words they're the only ones who "heed the battle call"
The only ones who'll fight 'til the day the RUC falls

Chorus:

I'll pay 10,000 Euro to anyone who puts a bullet through Paisley's head
And an extra 500 for any Parliament member found dead
It's been over 900 years that the Irish streets have been running red
While you're starving the Brits'll tell ya "you gotta convert if you want bread"
This war started long before January 1919
With the Irish fightin' in East Ulster against John de Courcy
They've been fightin' imperialists for centuries and they're not gonna take it anymore
They're sick of bein' beat by the British and forced to be poor
Sick of not bein' able to speak their language in their home
Sick of always havin' to watch their voices tone
Sick of not being able to live peacefully alone
Sick of laws made in the British interests not their own
Sick and fuckin' tired of British soldiers in Tyrone
Ireland's for the Irish not for fuckin' London of for Rome

Chorus:

Try and stop us now we like a fuckin' freight train
Gonna bulldoze gonna raze ya gonna make ya fuckers pay
Gonna (machine gun sounds) bomb gonna (machine gun) bomb gonna (machine gun) bomb gonna (sound of bomb exploding)

When I first started writing it it was meant to be against Bono, then it just evolved into an Irish independence song. It was inspired mostly by Bono's "fuck the revolution" speech. It's meant to be sung/rapped as a rapcore song. It doesn't look that great unless you actually hear it sung the way it's supposed to be.
