Stiff Little Fingers

Stiff Little Fingers are a punk rock band from Belfast, Northern Ireland. They formed in 1977, at the height of the Troubles. They started out as a schoolboy band called Highway Star (named after the Deep Purple song), doing rock covers, until they discovered punk. They split up after six years and four albums, although they reformed five years later, in 1987. Despite major personnel changes, they are still touring and recording as of 2011. Jake Burns, their lead singer, is the only member to have been with the band during all its incarnations, but in March 2006, original bass guitarist Ali McMordie rejoined them following the departure of The Jam bass player Bruce Foxton after fifteen years. more »

Punctuality, waste of time
Now nostalgia is past it's prime
History's a thing of the past
Being first just cannot last

Beep-beep I'm an answering machine
I mean to say, I say what I mean
Beep-beep, I've got very strong views
Plug in any loop tape you choose

My one single fault is modesty
I'm changing my views consistently
Amnesia's something I try to forget
Who can't kick gambling, want to bet?

Beep-beep I'm an answering machine
I mean to say, I say what I mean
Beep-beep, I've got very strong views
Plug in any loop tape you choose

The case for racism is black and white
If you want world peace you've got to fight
Must do what you're told to be free
Think what you like, if you agree with me

Beep-beep I'm an answering machine
I mean to say, I say what I mean
Beep-beep, I've got very strong views
Plug in any loop tape you choose

Speak whenever you hear this tone
Speak whenever you hear this tone
Speak whenever you hear this tone
Speak whenever you hear this tone
Speak whenever you hear this tone
Speak whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
Scream whenever you hear this tone
