You know, recently |
|
I was thinking |
|
I was thinking about one thing and the other and music crossed my mind |
|
Yeah? Yeah |
|
It occurred to me to switch on the radio |
|
I wanted to hear some music |
|
So I turned it on, it was |
|
Radio One, |
|
Sid Jenkins on the air |
|
He had synthesizers and soulful guises, |
|
I think you know the type of thing - |
|
Sure. it was alright |
|
It was OK ? |
|
I'm not lodging any complaints or anything, there was just one problem |
|
What was that? |
|
It all sounded the same |
|
You mean it all sounded similar? |
|
I mean it all sounded the same |
|
Anyway, so |
|
I started asking around, you know. |
|
I started making a few enquiries, just putting out a few feelers |
|
Yeah? Yeah. |
|
I had a word with a couple of so called socialists on my way |
|
And during the course of our conversation |
|
I put to them a question, |
|
I said: "How do you feel about Ireland?" |
|
Ireland? Yeah, |
|
Ireland That place, it's just across the sea |
|
Oh yeah, I know the place |
|
Well they said: "We're for Sandinista, Cuba's militia, the P L O, M.P.L.A, Afghanistan and Babylon" |
|
They went on and on and on and on. |
|
And I said: "Alright, Alright, but what do you think about Belfast?" |
|
And what did they say? |
|
Well, their replies were various but they all had one thing m common. |
|
And what was that? |
|
They all sounded the same |
|
You mean they sounded alike ? |
|
They all sounded the same |
|
Well, that's about the size of it, what can |
|
I tell you? |
|
You tell me. |
|
I dunno, It's just one of those of things |
|
What you mean one of 'those' things? |
|
Yeah, one of those things |
