[00:13.82]
[00:15.82]If you had the luck of the Irish
[00:20.46]You'd be sorry and wish you were dead
[00:25.03]You should have the luck of the Irish
[00:29.61]And you'd wish you was English instead!
[00:33.23]
[00:36.72]A thousand years of torture and hunger
[00:41.21]Drove the people away from their land
[00:46.29]A land full of beauty and wonder
[00:50.75]Was raped by the British brigands! Goddamn! Goddamn!
[00:56.36]
[00:57.94]If you could keep voices like flowers
[01:02.46]There'd be shamrock all over the world
[01:07.29]If you could drink dreams like Irish streams
[01:11.95]Then the world would be high as the mountain of morn
[01:17.33]
[01:20.32]In the 'Pool they told us the story
[01:24.97]How the English divided the land
[01:29.80]Of the pain, the death and the glory
[01:34.38]And the poets of auld Eireland
[01:38.12]
[01:39.17]If we could make chains with the morning dew
[01:43.92]The world would be like Galway Bay
[01:48.68]Let's walk over rainbows like leprechauns
[01:53.43]The world would be one big Blarney stone
[01:58.50]
[02:01.98]Why the hell are the English there anyway?
[02:06.69]As they kill with God on their side
[02:11.56]Blame it all on the kids the IRA
[02:16.25]As the bastards commit genocide! Aye! Aye! Genocide!
[02:22.40]
[02:42.45][02:23.35]If you had the luck of the Irish
[02:47.30][02:28.05]You'd be sorry and wish you was dead
[02:52.12][02:32.87]You should have the luck of the Irish
[02:56.90][02:37.65]And you'd wish you was English instead!
[03:01.95]Yes you'd wish you was English instead!
