(Jake Burns)
Time after time
The world is pressing down
On your shoulders
I know how you feel
Like you're the only one
Taking orders
It's hard to come to terms
With what seems so unfair
But somewhere in your life
You've got someone who cares
Chorus:
And I'll speak those honeyed words
Yeah, I'll speak those honeyed words
'Cos I know them all
Don't get worn down
It's much too easy to
Be defeated
Stand strong and proud
And let them know
That you won't be beaten
And if you start to waver
Or you start to shake
Just stand up and be counted
Don't begin to break
(Chorus)
So if you think you'll weaken
Resolution overthrown
Remember all we've said
And you are not alone
(Chorus)
Stiff Little Fingers sono una rock band nordirlandese di Belfast, formatasi nel 1977. Inizialmente si chiamavano Highway Star e suonavano cover di rock, fino a quando non scoprirono il punk. Dopo sei anni e quattro album, la band si sciolse, per poi riunirsi cinque anni dopo, nel 1987. Nonostante importanti cambiamenti nella formazione, continuano ancora oggi a girare in tour e registrare musica. Jake Burns, cantante principale, è l'unico membro rimasto presente in tutte le incarnazioni della band. Nel marzo 2006, il bassista originale Ali McMordie tornò a suonare con la band dopo il ritiro di Bruce Foxton (ex The Jam), che aveva suonato per quindici anni.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
