Irish Son

Irish Son"


 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 hand print on your skin
 From a glove of jewels


 Go hit me now
 That I'm twice your size
 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
 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


 Weddings deaths or 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


 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


 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


 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
 Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times
