Sunday Bloody Sunday - Elephant's Memory Lyrics - Some Time In New York City - John Lennon

Well it was Sunday bloody Sunday 

When they shot the people there 

The cries of thirteen martyrs 

Filled the Free Derry air 

Is there any one amongst you 

Dare to blame it on the kids? 

Not a soldier boy was bleeding 

When they nailed the coffin lids! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day!

You claim to be majority 

Well you know that it's a lie 

You're really a minority 

On this sweet emerald isle 

When Stormont bans our marches 

They've got a lot to learn 

Internment is no answer 

It's those mothers' turn to burn! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day!

You anglo pigs and scotties 

Sent to colonize the North 

You wave your bloody Union Jack 

And you know what it's worth! 

How dare you hold to ransom 

A people proud and free 

Keep Ireland for the Irish 

Put the English back to sea! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day! 

Well, it's always bloody Sunday 

In the concentration camps 

Keep Falls Road free forever 

From the bloody English hands 

Repatriate to Britain 

All of you who call it home 

Leave Ireland to the Irish 

Not for London or for Rome! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day! 

Sunday bloody Sunday 

Bloody Sunday's the day!
