Bad News (1982)

Lyrics:

What do you fin in Her Majesty's prison
Those who can't accept the system

People who have wrong ideas
People who they think dress queer

Those who won't co-operate
With the forces of the British State

Angry People for campaigning
People wronged and demonstrating

And people for playing Robin Hood
On the backs of lorries giving out free food

Those for for fiddling their electric meter
And those who know the wrong people

What do you find in the state's own prison
Those who fight against the system
People who call the police shits
People who challenge the Brits

Artist who write on walls
Kids who joy ride in cars

Those who cause embarrassment
Those in line for harassment

People framed through Diplock Courts
Others jailed by police paid touts

Love a friend, hate the system
Either way you'll end up in prison

Grown people with childlike minds
People who can't pay their fines

People who've lost all hope
People there for smoking dope

People who were on the double
People whose words have caused trouble

Tenants who've no rent for homes
Children who throw stones

Mothers who rob for food
People who walk about nude

Those who won't play their games
Those who don't give their names
People in the wrong place
Those with someone else's face

What do you find in a Belfast prison
Victims of a corrupt system

People there for being gay
People who've got in the way

Women, to make ends meet
Sell their bodies on the streets

Those for fiddling the dole
Those who have grown bored or old

Workers who go out on strike
People who stand up for their rights

Those who stand against oppression
People beaten to sign confessions

The working class fill it to the door
No rich, no Brits, just the poor

That's what you find in any prison
Victims of the state's oppression.
