They're starving families
in the name of Ireland
We've
been down that sorry road before
They’ve hung around much longer than
they should have
And it's too late to fool us anymore
We've seen the ones who
killed us with their vision
As they plundered Ireland right before
our eyes
Today they hold the power and the money in their hands
It's getting hard to listen to their lies.
Chorus:
And
I've just got to wonder what Connolly would've done
If he'd seen the way they
turned his dream around
All we have to guide us is the message he passed down,
Fight for your rights And stand
your ground
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU DOWN
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU
DOWN
50 billion euro is the price that we have to pay
So they can still play golf with
all their friends
While hospital s are closing down
and families are destroyed
You have to wonder where the fuck it went
Chorus:
And I've just got to
wonder what Connolly would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream
around
All we have to guide us is the message he passed down,
Fight for your rights And stand
your ground
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU DOWN
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU
DOWN
Chorus:
And I've just got
to wonder what James Connolly would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
All we have to guide us
is the message he passed down,
fight for your rights And stand
your ground
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU DOWN
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU
DOWN
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS DRAG YOU DOWN
