Irish Son Sözleri

Verse 1

I was born in the heart of Dublin

To a holy book full of rules

Made get on our knees every Sunday with the other fools

We were warped by the Christian Brothers

In the cell blocks at our schools

Get a handprint on your skin

From a claw of jewels

Go hit me now

That I'm twice your size

Brushed off the accusations

And bowed before your lies

Chorus 1

This is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

And it was leaving that saved me

I've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past

Feed your own mind

This Irish son has moved with the times

Verse 2

Weddings deaths and baptizing children

That's my debt paid to the church

I don't need that kind of salvation

When I get hurt

Don't fill my head with sermons

And force me to believe

Chorus 2

This is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

And it was leaving that saved me

I've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past

Feed your own mind

Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times

Verse3

Our father who art in heaven

Come down here and make your presence known

We can't do it on our own

The lunatics let run the asylum

How can we find peace inside your home

When you can't trust your own

Chorus 3

This is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

But it was leaving that saved me

I've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past

Feed your own mind

Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times
