Catchy, thanks for sharing it with us!
[Intro]
- There’s a little bit of breaking news to bring you
- And that is that counter terrorism police will investigate the rap trio, Kneecap[1]
[Chorus]
- Nah, nah, nah
- Imithe le fada
- It’s Kneecap, the recap;
- Ríthe Bhéal Feirste
- Nah, nah, nah
- Imithe le fada
- Ar chrónaigh sibh Provaí, Móglaí Bap agus Mo Chara
Annotation:
This line nods to reports of Kneecap being investigated by UK counter-terrorism police, likely due to their politically charged lyrics and republican imagery. It’s a tongue-in-cheek jab at the state’s overreaction to dissenting voices in art, highlighting how their music is seen as threatening enough to warrant surveillance.
