The Price to Pay

Andrea Rock & the Rebel Poets


The school is empty
the day has come
the march's on derry
because we shall overcome

We see two sisters
graceful and strong
back off this violence, dad
there's another course

Suddenly something's about to change
their way of life
and from that day
things will never be the same

As for the loyalist
i run away
the army's splitting and the hearts are getting cold

She wants to fight
not roll the gauze
dotes the most dangerous young girl in the provos

The price to pay
up to the final consequence
200 days
against the grain

Radicalised at 19
committed to the cause
after 3 years
mcconville disappeared
every informer
punished by death
mother of ten
unmarked grave

The price to pay
is equal to the life you take
