Lyrics

Every bomb you make Every job you take Every heart you break Every Irish wake I'll be watching you Every wall you build Every one you've killed Every grave you've filled All the blood you've spilled I'll be watching you Oh, can't you see You belong to me? There'll be a bill to pay On that judgement day For every empty plate Every word of hate Those you subjugate Those you violate I'll be watching you
