Well, you tell us that we're wrong
And you tell us not to sing our song Nothing we can say will make you see You got a heart of stone You can never feel You say "oh I'm not afraid - it can't happen to me I've lived my life as a good man Oh, no you're out of your mind It won't happen to me Cause I've carried my weight And I've been a strong man" But listen to the man in the liquor store He yelling "anybody wanna drink before the war?" And your parents paid you through You got a nice big car Nothing bothers you Somebody cut out your eyes You refuse to see Somebody cut out your heart You refuse to feel And you live in a shell You create your own hell You live in the past and talk about war And you dig your own grave But it's a life you can save So start keeping fast It's not gonna happen And you'll cry But you'll never fall, no, no, no You're building a wall Gotta break it down Start again No, no, no - it won't happen to us We've lived our lives Basically we've been good men So stop talking of war Cause you know we've heard it all before Why don't you go out there and do something useful But listen to the man in the liquor store He yelling "anybody wanna drink before the war?" "Anybody wanna drink before the war?" "Anybody wanna drink before the war?" |

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
telling me he'd be home sailed the seas for a hundred years leaving me all alone and I've been dead for twenty years I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears searching the shores for my Jackie-oh I remember the day the young man came said, your Jackie's gone, he got lost in the rain and I ran to the beach and laid me down you're all wrong, I said and they stared at the sand that man knows the sea like the back of his hand he'll be back some time laughing at you and I've been waiting all this time for my man to come, take his hand in mine and lead me away to unsailed shores I've been washing the sand with my salty tears searching the shore these long years and I'll walk the sea forever more 'til I find my Jackie-oh |

She like to listen to rock and roll She moves with the music `Cause it never gets old It's the only thing that never gets old Young man in a quiet place Got a hawk on his arm Loves that bird Never does no harm It's the only thing that never can do no harm Must be the only thing that never can do no harm Some say that on the avenue Everyone was bare They lived their life under cover Being blind Being blind Being blind |

margret thatcher on t.v.
shocked by the deaths that took place in bejing it seems strange that she should be offended the same orders are given by her I've said this before now you said I was childish + you'll say it now "remember what I told you if they hated me they will hate you" england's not the mythical land of madame george + roses it's the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds and I love my boy + that's why I'm leaving I don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving young mother down at smithfield 5 am looking for food for her kids in her arms and the first word that they learned was "please" these are dangerous days to say what you feel is to dig your own grave "remember what I told you if you were of the world they would love you" england's not the mythical land of madame george + roses it's the home of police who kill blacks boys on mopeds and I love my boy + that's why I'm leaving I don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving |

Think about my little girl
Her yellow skin and her dark curl And how her father's heart was frozen I spoke to her and I said: "You won't regret the mother you have chosen" I lied. Where's she tonight? I left him now we're apart And I think about his cruel heart And how his lies have left mine broken To think that I spoke to him then I said: "She won't regret the father she has chosen" I lied. Where's he tonight? You were precious to me After all I called you into being I wanted you to know that Yes, you were precious to me And I miss my little boy I strayed away, so far away And I need him tonight To feel his hands around my face His loving eyes His happy face Would be so right Once I sat in my husbands car Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying My heart wouldn't work And this he did my special child He touched my face with his hand and smiled Oh boy, everything's all right Don't cry, everything's all right Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight Don't hide, Jake's here alive |

like I never was before it's too late for prevention but I don't think it's too late for the cure so you call in your minions see what you can find night time or morning these hands are sticky but I don't mind why must you always be around? why can't you just leave it be? it's done nothing so far but destroy my life you cause as much sorrow dead as you did when you were alive I never said I was though that was everyone else so you're a fool to attack me for the image that you built yourself it just sounds more vicious then I actually mean I really am soft tender + sweet why must you always be around? why can't you just leave me be? you've done nothing so far but destory my life you cause as much sorrow dead as you did when you were alive (repeat |

You'll think it strange When I try to explain how I feel That I still need your love After all that I've done You won't believe me All you will see is a girl You once knew Although she's dressed up To the nines At sixes and sevens with you I had to let it happen I had to change Couldn't stay all my life Down at the hill Looking out of the window Staying out of the sun So I chose freedom Running around trying Everything new But nothing impressed me at all I never expected it too Don't cry for me Argentina The truth is I never left you All through my wild days My mad existence I kept my promise Don't keep your distance And as for fortune And as for fame I never invited them in Though it seemed to the world They were all I desired They are illusions They are not the solutions They promised to be The answer was here all the time I love you and hope you love me I kept my promise Don't keep your distance |

Sunday is gloomy.
My hours are slumberless Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless Little white flowers Will never awaken you Not where the black coach Of sorrow has taken you Angels have no thought Of ever returning you Would they be angry If I thought of joining you Gloomy Sunday Sunday is gloomy With shadows I spend it all My heart and I have decided To end it all Soon there'll be flowers and prayers That are said I know But let them not weep Let them know That I'm glad to go Death is no dream For in death I'm caressing you With the last breath of my soul I'll be blessing you Gloomy Sunday Dreaming I was only dreaming I wake and I find you asleep In the deep of my heart dear Darling I hope That my dream never haunted you My heart is telling you How much I wanted you Gloomy Sunday Gloomy Sunday |

and then I heard my child in prayer and for me some scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for my hair all the stores were close and shuttered all the streets were dark and bare in our town no scarlet ribbons not one scarlet ribbon for her hair thru the night my heart was aching just before the dawn was breaking I peeked in and on her pillow In gay profusion lying there lively ribbons, scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair If I live to be two hundred I will never know from where came those lovely scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair |

But you're colder still And for the first time I feel like you're mine I share you with the one who will Meant what falls apart And turn a blind eye To the thief of your heart Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all You lost all Ohhh you lost you lost all You lost all I'll never wash these clothes I want to keep the stain Your blood to me is precious Nor would I spill it in vain Your spirit sings Though your lips never part Singing only to me The thief of your heart From the point of lies Within the mind of God Let light stream forewards Within the minds of man Let light descend on earth From the point of love Within the hearts of God Let love stream forewards Into the hearts of man May the Christ return to earth From the center Where the will of God is now Let the purpose guide the little wills of man Purpose wich the masters now unserve From the center wich we call the race of man Let the plan of love and light work out And may is seal the door where evil dwells Let love and light and power Restore the planet earth Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all you lost all Ohhh you lost Ohhh you lost all you lost all |

A Perfect Indian is he
Remembering him life is sweet Like a weeping willow His face on my pillow Comes to me still in my dreams And there I saw a young baby A beautiful daughter was she A face from a painting Red cheeks and teeth aching Her eyes like a wild Irish sea On a table in her yellow dress For a photograph feigned happiness Why in my life is that the only time That any of you will smile at me I'm sailing on this terrible ocean I've come for my self to retrieve Too long have I been feeling like ???'s childern And there's only one way to be free He's shy and he speaks quietly He's gentle and he seems to me Like the elf-arrow His face worn and harrowed Is he a daydreamer like me |

OK, I want to talk about Ireland
Specifically I want to talk about the "famine" About the fact that there never really was one There was no "famine" See Irish people were only ALLOWED to eat potatoes All of the other food Meat fish vegetables Were shipped out of the country under armed guard To England while the Irish people starved And then on the middle of all this They gave us money not to teach our children Irish And so we lost our history And this is what I think is still hurting me See we're like a child that's been battered Has to drive itself out of it's head because it's fightened Still feels all the painful feelings But they lose contact with the memory And this leads to massive self-destruction ALCOHOLISM DRUG ADICTION All desperate attempts at running And in it's worst form Becomes actual killing And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding An American army regulation Says you mustn't kill more than 10% of a nation 'Cos to do so causes permanent "psychological damage" It's not permanent but they didn't know that Anyway during the supposed "famine" We lost a lot more than 10% of a nation Through deaths on land or on ships of emigration But what finally broke us was not starvation BUT IT'S USE IN THE CONTROLLING OF OUR EDUCATION School go on about "Black 47" On and on about "The terrible "famine"" But what they don't say is in truth There really never was one So let's take a look shall we The highest statistics of child abuse in the EEC And we say we're a Christian country But we've lost contact with our history See we used to worship God as a mother We're sufferin from POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER Look at all our old men in the pubs Look at all our young people on drugs We used to worship God as a mother Now look at what we're doing to each other We've even made killers of ourselves The most child-like trusting people in the Universe And this is what's wrong with us Our history books THE PARENT FIGURES lied to us I see the Irish As a race like a child That got itself basned in the face And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be FORGIVING There has to be KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING |

I do think that women could make politics irrelevant.
By as a kind of spontaneous cooperative action, the like of which we have never seen. Which is so far from people's ideas of state structure and vital social structure that seems to them like total anarchy. And what it really is is very subtle forms of interrellation which do not follow sort of hierachical pattern which is fundamentally patriarchal. The opposite to patriarchy is not matriarchy but fraternity. And I think it's women who are going to have to break this spiral of power and find the trick of cooperation. |

See the child
With the golden hair Yet eyes that show the emptiness inside Do we know Can we understand just how he feels Or have we really tried See him now As he stands alone And watches children play a children's game Simple child He looks almost like the others Yet they know he's not the same Scorn not his simplicity But rather try to love him all the more Scorn not his simplicity Oh no Oh no See him stare Not recognizing the kind face That only yesterday he loved The loving face Of a mother who can't understand what she's been guilty of How she cried, tears of happiness the day the doctor told her it's a boy Now she cries, tears of helplessness and thinks of all the things he can't enjoy * Only he knows how to face the future hopefully Surrounded by despair He won't ask for your pity or your sympathy But surely you should care ** |

My own love said to me "My mother won't mind. And my daughters won't slight you for your lack of kind". He went away from me and this he did say "It will not be long, Love, till our wedding day" He went away from me And he moved through the fair And slowly I watched him Move here and move there He went his way homeward with one star awake As this swan in the evening moves over the lake I dreamed last night that my own love came in He came in so sweetly his feet made no din He came close beside me And this he did say "It will not be long Love till our wedding day" It will not be long love long love long love love |

Will you be my lover? Will you be my mama? I said will you be my lover? I said will you be my babe? When I lay down my head At the end of my day Nothing would Nothing would please me better Than I find that you're there When I lay down my head At the end of my day Nothing would Nothing would please me better Than I find that you're there when I wake Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Just like u said it would b Will you be my lover?

It's been seven hours and fifteen days Since you took your love away
(당신이 떠나간지 15일 7시간이 되었네요.) I go out every night and sleep all day (매일 밤을 헤매이고 낮에는 잠이 들죠.) Since you took your love away (당신이 사랑을 가져간 이후로) Since you been gone I can do whatever I want (이제서야 내가 원하는걸 할 수 있네요) I can see whomever I choose (내가 원하는 사람을 만날 수도 있고) I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant (멋진 곳에서 저녁도 먹어요. ) But nothing (하지만 아무것도 없어요) I said nothing can take away these blues (이 우울함을 떨쳐버릴 수 있는게 아무것도 없다 했지요.) Cause nothing compares (비교할 수 없기에) Nothing compares to you (그 무엇도 당신과 비교할 수 없기에) It's been so lonely without you here (당신이 없는 이곳은 외로워요) Like a bird without a song (소리를 잃어버린 한마리 새처럼) Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling (흘러내리는 눈물을 멈출 수가 없네요.) Tell me baby where did I go wrong (말해주세요,어디서부터 잘못된 건지...) I could put my arms around every girls I see (주변에 있는 아이들을 안을수도 있지만) But they'd only remind me of you (당신을 떠올리게 될거에요.) I went to the doctor and guess what he told me (의사에게 갔었죠 뭐라 말해줄지 생각하며) Guess what he told me (무슨 얘길 해줬는지 아시나요?) He said boy you better try to have fun (당신을 잊고 즐거움을 찾아보래요.) No matter what you do (당신이 무엇을 하든 상관없이) But he's a fool (하지만 그는 모르죠.) Cause nothing compares (비교할 수 없기에) Nothing compares to you (그 무엇도 당신과 비교할 수 없기에) All the flowers that you planted, mama In the back yard (어머니,당신이 뒷뜰에 심어 놓은 꽃들이) All died when you went away (당신이 떠나버린 이후로 모두 시들었네요.) I know that living with you baby was somtimes hard (알아요,함께 있다는게 가끔은 힘들었다는걸..) But I'm willing to give it another try (하지만 나는 또다른 노력을 해볼게요.) Nothing compares Nothing compares to you Nothing compares Nothing compares to you Nothing compares Nothing compares to you |

I?ll remember it
And Dublin in a rainstorm And sitting in the long grass in summer Keeping warm I?ll remember it Every restless night We were so young then We thought that everything We could possibly do were the right Then we moved Stolen from our very eyes And I wondered where you went to Tell me when did the light die You will rise You'll return The phoenix from the flame You will learn You will rise You'll return Being what you are There is no other Troy For you to burn And I never meant to hurt you I swear I didn't mean Those things I said I never meant to do that to you Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead Oh, does she love you What do you want to do? Does she need you like I do? Do you love her? Is she good for you? Does she hold you like I do? Do you want me? Should I leave? I know you're always telling me That you love me Just sometimes I wonder If I should believe Oh, I love you God, I love you I'd kill a dragon for you I?ll die But I will rise And I will return The Phoenix from the flame I have learned I will rise And you'll see me return Being what I am There is no other Troy For me to burn And you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on Then I wouldn't have tried And you'd never have known And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter No I wouldn't have pulled you close I wouldn't have screamed No I can't let you go And the door wasn't closed No I wouldn't have pulled you to me No I wouldn't have kissed your face You wouldn't have begged me to hold you If we hadn't been there in the first place Ah but I know you wanted me to be there oh oh Every look that you threw told me so But you should?ve left the light on You should?ve left the light on And the flames burned away But you're still spitting fire Make no difference what you say You're still a liar You're still a liar You're still a lawyer |
