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 »

It was nothing like that in my day 
Here in my town
We didn't get things all our way. 
Till we were full-grown
Now they go into pubs. 
And you're gonna get mugged
In my town
So you read about it every day 
In the headlines
How they take and take and drive away. 
Sex and late nights
And it's gotta be wrong. 
Because they're so young

They're only bits of kids. 
They're only bits of kids
It's always bits of kids today

She makes the breakfast, one of eight 
All in one room
Each uncle's call keeps them up late. 
Yes, in this town
And he won't go home 'cause he'll just be alone till night time

They're only bits of kids. 

They're only bits of kids
It's always bits of kids today
Broken cities, 'n' broken homes. 
Bits of kids who don't grow whole
Broken cities, 'n' broken hearts. 
Bits of people who fall apart

And it seems there's nothing anyway 
Not here in this town
Everything is only yesterday. 
And on the way down
And we're gonna be wrong. 
So we gotta be strong
In our town

We're bits of kids. 
We're only bits of kids
It's only bits of kids today
Bits of kids. 
We're always 
Here in my town
