#1 We believe in Freedom, we won our right that day
At the Battle of the Boyne - we're very proud to say.
James he was defeated - Justice had been done
Raise now a glass to King William.

Would be nice for the Army boys to see stones bouncing off the blue helmets for a change...

#8 Sounds like a good time was had by all.
I think the violence just needs to be formalized.
Perhaps real football would do the trick.

#10 I remember that the Orangemen would always want to take their Big Drum et al and march through the Catholic areas on the Glorious Twelveth of July. Everyone needed to cool it. Last time I was in Belfast, we went pub crawling. Driving around there at night was like a version of Blade Runner.

#12 I remember learning this Belfast street ditty of long ago:

King Billy was a gentleman
he wore a watch and chain
The Pope he was a beggarman
And lived on Chapel Lane
King Billy had an Orange cat
that sat upon the fender
And every time it caught a mouse
He shouted "NO SURRENDER"
