Lyrics
The future is a carrot that they dangle while they ready the stick
A home of your own dining out like all those comfortable pricks
And if you work hard and spend your money someday you might find some meaning
Just ignore all the vultures at the carcass of a city that's screaming
And it goes a wee-yeah, wee-yeah
It was a goodbye letter that we got from a dear friend
Wee-yeah, wee-yeah
We found her in time but she's not in the clear yet
I felt sad a few hours before I left you the other night
Before the sun came up and exposed us all in the bright
Oh, the light of the fire sure it shone up your face like a beacon
And I felt a pang cos I knew that soon I would have to be leaving
And it goes a wee-aw, wee-aw
We've got housing for all now from Leo and Mícheál
Wee-aw, wee-aw
One person's rent is another one's income
Leo, he's at home, and he's getting all ready to go
A-sprucing up the shamrocks that he's putting in a nice little bowl
He'll fly over the Atlantic to go kissing Genocide Joe's hole
Even though we're on the streets now for weeks and we're telling him no
And it goes a wee-ee, wee-ee
Rent's coming up and these vultures are greedy
Wee-ee, wee-ee
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free
There's a powder keg here just waiting for a spark to be lit
This land is ours, all of ours, not a playground just for the rich
It won't be long before we all decide it's GPO time
And I'll kiss you at the barricades and we'll sing all those songs about freedom
And it goes a wee-yeah, wee-yeah
It was a goodbye letter that we got from a dear friend
Wee-yeah, wee-yeah
We found her in time but she's not in the clear yet
Wee-aw, wee-aw
We've got housing for all now from Leo and Mícheál
Wee-aw, wee-aw
One person's rent is another one's income
Wee-ee, wee-ee
Rent's coming up and these vultures are greedy
Wee-ee, wee-ee
But from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free
And the siren's screaming and I just want to hold ya
I just want to hear you sing
