Music:
The Cause
The dawn of another day
History will have its say
Blame from another way
Got us in these straights today
Fighting over king and country
Hoping to return
Essence of that pioneering
Burning in the cause
Of a troubled land
Get up now and make a stand
Change for the common man
Forge another way again
Take the reins and agitate
Those who’d leave us up to fate
For all the souls who’ve gone before us
Fighting for the
Get on up now
Fight for your country
Get on up now
Fight for the cause
Get on up now
Fight for your country
Get on up now
Fight for the cause
Get on up now
Fight for your country
Get on up now
Fight for the cause
The cause will change the way
History will have its say
The dawn of another day
We are…
Fighting for the cause
In a troubled land
Get up now and make a stand
For change is a come in’ man
We are…
Fighting for the cause
In a troubled land
Get up now and make a stand
For change is a come in’ man
We are fighting for the cause

Mighty Irish
From the Rising of the Moon
To the Wearing of the Green
Some stood defiant
While others crossed the sea
But all stuck together
Wrapped in Celtic pride
Raise your voice for the living
And a pint for those who died
Mighty Irish – Mighty Irish
For those who lived the history
We’re here to raise a glass
Might Irish – Mighty Irish
They gave us shit
We shoveled it
Right back up their arse
Easter sun was rising
Blood across the land
Bobby he wore blankets
Wrapped in prison sand
Five human rights
A death for who demands
Freedom for living
In this blessed emerald land
Mighty Irish – Mighty Irish
The bastard sons of history
Are here to raise a glass
Might Irish – Mighty Irish
They gave us shit
We shoveled it
Right back up their arse

Here For The Music
It’s Five O’clock
You hear the whistle blow
It doesn’t really blow
But you know it’s time to go
Heading for the local
A hundred voices strong
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song
The band starts playing
Sweet Molly Malone
A whisky and a Céilí
alive and living on
Passed from generation
Tradition fights on
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song
Carry On
Down Sober Lane
Pop a Cork
Father Mathew still abstains
You have to take the high road
To reach old Johnny Fox
But coming down the hill mate
Is still the hardest part
Passed through generations
From father to a son
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song
Lay me out
When all is said and done
Sweet Molly came calling
She poured the last one
One last chance
Before the night is gone
You might leave by yourself mate
But you won’t come back alone
Passed from generation
This part of us lives on
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song
We’re here for the music
We’re here for the song

A Fifth Of Nowhere
A fifth of nowhere - A fifth of nowhere
A fifth of nowhere
14 hours since I left my baby
And I got me a fifth of nowhere
Screaming down life’s endless highway
Head back, bottoms up, haven’t got a care
Righteous on a Friday night
Kicking up a fuss
Age-old songs tell age-old stories (and)
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
14 days since I left my baby
And I got me a fifth of nowhere
Just another lifeless by-way
Head straight, seat up, trying not to care
Mindless on a Saturday
Thinking makes it worse
Age-old songs tell age-old stories (and)
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
A fifth of nowhere - A fifth of nowhere
14 months since I left my baby
You’d think I ought to be somewhere
Spun my wheels, kicked up some dust
Head down, lights out, haven’t got a prayer
Some hits make you stronger
Some hits can’t be nursed
Age-old songs tell age-old stories (and)
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
I don’t know what I’ve become
I don’t know where I belong
14 months and 14 days
Since I got me a fifth of nowhere
Still I think about it
If I could just kick it in reverse
Age-old songs tell age-old stories (and)
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
Each new curse strikes deeper than the first
A fifth of nowhere - A fifth of nowhere
