Stiff Little Fingers Lyrics. Hangs a naked light over your face. Shines electric ness upon your bed. Well, if it wasn't for your stiff little fingers. Nobody would know you were dead. You never really did much living.
Fly The Flag Lyrics. Gimme a country that's red white and blue. Gimme the British way honest and true. Gimme the chance to be one of the few. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme. Gimme a nation where people are free. Free to do and free to be. Free to screw you before you screw me. Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme.
