The Big Day

The day you have waited for, is here it seems
The day you marry the girl of your dreams.

No time for nerves, no time time to worry
Take your time getting sorted
No need to hurry.

Getting suited and booted
The excitement kicks in
Make sure the best man has both of the rings.

Tis nearly time, time to depart
A beer at the bar, its only the start!

The service starts at half past 2
Your taking your vows and saying   
 'I DO'

Speak loud and clear
Don't forget to smile
As you walk your new bride down the wedding aisle.

Enjoy the day, soak it all in
Deliver your speech with a big cheesy grin!

It's time to party, after your first wedding dance
Hold Your bride close like it's your only chance.

I hope that you both have a wonderful day
And in each other's arms, forever you'll stay.

No Place Like Home

What's going on in my home town? 
I ask you this from behind my frown 
The high streets full of charity places
Populating the vacant spaces.

We are overrun with taxi cabs
"You working late pal? Ya looking Shabs!" 
'Cheers gadge, am on til 9, am bloody seek!' the drive whines

Junkies, Alkies, our streets they roam, what's your poison?
Cheap cider, vodka, methadone?

Part time Dads, teenage Mams
Pushing babies in their prams
Weekends out on the piss
Names climbing up the council list

Generations play the benefit game
Bleeding us dry, is their sole aim
Council house and on the sick
Everything bought on the tick

50 inch tellies, 3 piece suites
Shopping sprees almost every week

I love our town, I really do
But for now the town is screwed
Run by a council with half a brain
Shops are empty, such a shame

If it wasn't for the holiday camps
Filled up every year with ska...families from North and South 

Weegies, Geordies every year
They love this place I regard so dear

So dual the A1, lower the rent
Tackle the problems with intent
A town of which we should be proud
Not cursing under a big black cloud.

Blood On Our Hands

Blood on our hands.

Extremist hate is on the rise
Are you seeing it with your own eyes?

Hate filled clerics cashing in
A world of terror, death and sin
Speaking out, preaching to the masses
Spewing vile hatred master classes!

Look at our country, it's condition
Feeding these bastards ammunition
It's on our streets & in our jails
Brainwashing convicts in their cells!

What has Great Britain become?
A breeding ground for terrorist scum!
An innocent man on the street
Butchered like a piece of meat!

A British soldier, 1 of our own
Had survived working in a war zone
Murdered by a pair of cowards
They should have hung from the tower!

An eye for an eye should be made law
To eradicate the extremist hoards

Let's stand up tall , let's take the fight
Regain control of our countries plight
Banish them from our hallowed lands
And wash the blood stains from our hands.

They Walk Among Us

They walk among us, we're not alone
The UK's becoming a new war zone
"A new war zone?"I hear you ask
The war on TERROR a brutal task!

Planning, plotting preparing to strike
To kill men, women and children alike
Blowing up busses, hijacking planes 
In the name of what? That question remains!

Where do they find these willing recruits?
To carry out various evil pursuits!

In the name of a god, who doesn't exist, still these evil bastards persist
To inflict pain on others when we expect it the least
So you can sit with your virgins at a table and feast!

Your hate propaganda, the havoc you wreak
You preach to the masses, the socially weak

Why is the question?  Do you come to our shores?
To leech off our system, to break our laws!

Some are native, of British descent
Brainwashed into causing harm with intent!
 
Lets all club together and put to an end
The acts of terror on our women, kids and men!

No More Pain

Tears fall like morning rain
Trying to wash away your pain
It's ok, I'm not alone
The angels took me to their home

Try not to worry, dont be sad
I love you loads, dear mum and dad
Inner peace I hope you'll find
I'll never wander from your mind

Remember all the happy things
Like when you pushed me on the swings
Fond memories I know you'll share
Like the times you took me to the fair 

I'll always be your little girl
The one you brought into this world

So don't be sad, dont be afraid
Please tell all the friends I made
I love them all, they need not worry and not to forget me in a hurry

I'm feeling fine I have no pain 
1 day we'll all be together again.

Isis Must Fall

I watched the news today
What I saw took my breath away
I felt anger like never before
Like it was personal, felt the need to level the score.

Innocent men, captured, their freedom taken away
Held to ransom, for what? Financial gain? 
No to cause their loved ones hurt and pain!
3 men brutally attacked 
By an IS coward wearing a mask!

Apparently speaking with a British accent, you beheaded a fellow Briton, the ultimate dissent!
In Syria to deliver humanitarian aid
The man was there a matter of days!

Young recruits leaving our shores to fight for the jihadi cause
Great let's round them up and send them all, to answer the IS rallying call 
Wipe them out and watch them fall!

Brainwashed in our very towns, by grown men preaching in their  'sacred' gowns
Over the internet to masses worldwide, is this a dilemma? 
I'll let you decide.

How much more will it take, to put immediate action into place?
Another religious war based on hate of the entire human race!

Sinking Britain

David Cameron, Barack Obama
Them 2 gadgies love a drama
Stay away from Russia and Ukraine
Our forces families don't need more pain

For the last decade we've sent our boys
To fight the war against terrorist ploys

Lads are killed,scarred and maimed
Far too many to be named
It's not just physical or on the outside
It's in their head, where nightmares bide

It's time to bring these brave men home
And fight the demons of their own

Instead of fighting others wars, 
Concentrate on our ours
Not theirs, YOURS!

The countries in a hell of plight
Why send the boys back out to fight?

Let's shut the doors to immigrant whores
Raping our system 
Exposing our flaws

Great Britain? Your having a laugh
Even Scotland want their own gaff
The empire riddled with massive debt
Is our government totally inept?

It's time to sort and get a grip
Of this sinking ship
The damage done it could be too late
We should just be Britain cos nothing is Great

They're all drinking from the same dirty cup
 Constantly driving our taxes up

Poverty is on our streets,next door
Food banks popping up, more and more

Our worst fears coming true
Watching this shit storm brew
The futures bleak we're going down
With David Cameron's band of clowns.

William Duffy.
