Song language: English
Irish Son |
| I was born in the heart of Dublin |
| To a holy book full of rules |
| Made it go on our knees every Sunday with the other fools |
| We were walked 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 |
| We brushed off the accusations |
| And bowed before your lies |
| 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 |
| Cause this Irish son has moved with the times |
| Weddings deaths, and baptising 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 |
| 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 |
| Cause this Irish son has moved with the times |
| Our father who art in heaven |
| Come down here and make your presence known |
| We can’t do it on our own |
| The lunatics have run the asylum |
| How can we find peace inside your home |
| When you can’t trust your own |
| 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 |
| Just break with your past |
| Feed your own mind |
| Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times |
| Yes this Irish son has moved with the times |
