Back when I was younger they were talking at me
Never listened to a word I said
Always yap yap yapping and complaining at me
Made me think I'd be better of dead
I don't want to talk about it
I don't want to hear no lip
Take your share don't shout about it
That's your lot remember you're a kid

They would always teach me that to swear was a sin
Always speak your mind but not aloud
Think of something that you want to do with your life
Nothing that you like that's not allowed
I've no time to talk about it
All your stupid hopes and dreams
Get your feet back on the ground son
It's exams that count not football teams

(Chorus:)
And I'm running at the edge of their world
They're criticising something they just can't understand
Living on the edge of their town
And I won't be shot down

Stiff Little Fingers Lyrics At The Edge

Taught me to defend myself and to be a man
How to kick someone and run away
Gave me everything that any young man could need
But don't understand why I won't stay
Here's your room and here's your records
Here's your home and here you'll stay
Here's somewhere I don't believe in
Wish someone would take it all away

(Chorus)

You lit a flame in my heartAnd it is burning stillAnd every time I hear you shout

It still gives me a thrillI can see you up thereWith your right leg pumpingGoodbye inspirationVoice of a generationGoodbye InspirationI won't be playing Strummerville againYou wore your heart on your sleeveWith honesty and prideYou gave me hope, made me believeThat what I did was rightYou brought out a passionThat had long been missingYeah you brought out a passionThat you never stopped giving[Chorus x2]And if music seems mundaneIt's cos the companies get their own wayAnd all the young bands seem to sayPlease turn our rebellion into moneySo thanks for giving me my creedI'll try to stay onsideY'or helping me to dare to dreamAfter all this timeCos I still see you up thereOn a stage and playingYeah I still see you up thereI still agree with what your saying[Chorus x2]
