Border guards are in place
Attack dogs hungry for blood
Shining weapons and training
Protect this neighbourhood
By order of our council
By decree of majority
To you the beach is of limits
No more paddling in the sea
You’re barred from Bettystown Laddie
You’ll walk no more its shore
They’ll shoot you at first sight
You’re welcome here no more
It’s not up for negotiation
You can do nothing at all
Don’t send an ambassador
Or they too will take the fall
No more bottles to fill
No more walks to piss me off
You’re barred from Bettystown Laddie
Now please fuck off
You’re barred from Bettystown Laddie
You’ll walk no more its shore
They’ll shoot you at first sight
You’re welcome here no more
