Northern Ireland
Situation
War, within a single nation
No one thinks of it as war
That's what television's for
Embroidering reality, with clichés and ???
We'll call this war the 'troubles'
Confuse the masses with initials
(IRA, UVA, UVA, IRA, ILA, IUC)
There's so many sides involved
And no one thinks it can be solved
Avoidance of the history of suppression, death and misery
Will leave the people, ignorant of everything that's relevant
So who is who defending, and who's protecting who?
Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do!
So we see the brave young soldiers
And we read about the murders
Then we place our weak opinions
On what the papers tell us
But telling half the truth is as bad as telling lies
For a war to keep continuing
There has to be two sides!
But who is who defending, who's protecting who?
Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do!
Supporting one side or the other
Is really nothing more
Than saying there is no solution
But to carry on the war
And both the IRA and the army
Are equally to blame
In general terms of violence
You know they're doing just, they're doing just, they're doing just the same
Doing just the same
So who is who defending, and who's protecting who?
Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do!
Don't pretend you do, don't pretend you do, don't pretend you do do do do do
Culture Shock was an anarcho-punk / ska punk band formed in Warminster, Wiltshire, England, in 1986 by Dick Lucas, previously of the Subhumans. Over their four year history the band played hundreds of gigs, including frequent appearances at free festivals, and released three studio albums on the Bluurg record label. Lucas' lyrics were mostly concerned with social and political issues, from cruelty to animals, Northern Ireland, war, and social alienation, but were far from angry rants, often finding a positive and empowering perspective. Culture Shock split at the end of 1989, as Bill and Nige both had young families to support. Dick went on to form Citizen Fish with Jasper, the bassist on Culture Shock's final album, and two other former members of the Subhumans.

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.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
