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
