ARMAGH by Au Pairs: another Irish ditty

"We don't torture we're a civilised nation
We're avoiding any confrontation
we don't torture we don't torture

American hostages
In Iran
Heard daily on the news
forget about Vietnam
You can ignore the 32--
there are 32 women in Armagh jail
political prisoners here at home
the British state's got nothing to lose
It's a subject better left alone--

we don't torture
we're a civilised nation
we're avoiding
any confrontation
we don't torture

alleged crimes withheld information
She gets no sanitation
dries her shit on her cell wall
feeling cold and sick
She gets a couple of valium
Now she's relaxed for the next interrogation
naked spreadeagled on her back
it's a better position for an internal examination
it's a better position for giving information

An armed guard squad she gets a beating
bleeding and wounded she's stopped eating
has a baby gets nothing for the pain
they came and took, her baby away"

Nice vacation spot, no?
