[Véarsa a 1]
How did all this racism start?
It’s like a strike straight to the heart
Dubh nó bán, no one’s a pawn
Do we all know right or wrong
Let me take you on a tour
Racism is a big, big bore
It hurts people to their core
If you’re racist, you will snore

[Cúrfa ]
In the trenches
They had no benches
Tá an domhan go dona
It wasn’t really funna
It was back crunching
There was some punching
Haven’t we learnt something?
Ar scáth a chéile,
A mhaireann na daoine

[Véarsa a 2]
Bia for free, bia for me
Prices are high, daoine can’t buy
Daoine will cry, daoine might die
Tá ocras orainn ar an bhfeirm
Some have to sleep on the floor
They are sore, they are so poor
Rent is trouble, it’s like it doubled
Daoine can’t sleep, daoine on the streets

[Cúrfa ]
In the trenches
They had no benches
Tá an domhan go dona
It wasn’t really funna
It was back crunching
There was some punching
Haven’t we learnt something?
Ar scáth a chéile,
a mhaireann na daoine

[Droichead]
They could push you
In a pool and
Call you a big fool
Ableism isn’t cool
Or to be bullied at school

[Cúrfa]
In the trenches
They had no benches
Tá an domhan go dona
It wasn’t really funna
It was back crunching
There was some punching
Haven’t we learnt something?
Ar scáth a chéile,
