Disraeli's Problem - Spirogyra

Just seen the soldiers on patrol in Derry

What they thinking?

Bet they wish they could stay at home

Go out drinking in the evening

Just seen the newsprint tonight

Violence increasing, an explosion

Suddenly a public house went off bang

Foul play suspected, someone’s cheating

Surely you see at the top of the stairs

A young mother cries

Convinced that her husband lies bleeding, defying

While 13 more died

See how her eyes glow

She’s going insane

And you tell me enquiries will show

Who’s to blame

But next Sunday at 2, it will happen again, again

So you think you can get away

Go down to Brighton for a season

Discuss the issues from day to day

Looking for reasons on paper

Surely you see at the side of the road

What looks like a bomb

Shoppers with children lie bleeding and dying

But what have they done

See how our eyes glow

We’re going insane

And you tell me enquiries will show

Whose to blame

But Maudling, you fool, it will happen again, again
