Love Ire And Song

[00:00:00] Love Ire And Song - Frank Turner

[00:00:18] A teacher of mine once told me that life was just a list of

[00:00:22] Disappointments and defeats and you could only do your best

[00:00:25] And I said "Well that's a f**king cop out" you're just washed up

[00:00:29] And you're tired and when I get to your age

[00:00:32] Well I won't be such a coward

[00:00:34] But these days I sit at home I'm known to shout at my TV

[00:00:38] And punk rock didn't live up to what I'd hoped that it could be

[00:00:41] And all the things that I believed with all my heart when I was young

[00:00:45] Are just coasters for beers and clean surfaces for drugs and

[00:00:49] I've packed all my pamphlets with my Bibles at the back of the shelf

[00:01:09] Well it was bad enough the feeling the first time it hit

[00:01:13] When you realized your parents let the world all go to shit

[00:01:17] And that the values and ideals for which so many fought and died

[00:01:21] Had been killed off in committees and left to die by the way side

[00:01:25] But it was worse when we turned to the kids on the left

[00:01:29] And got let down again by some poor excuse for protest

[00:01:33] By idiot f**king hippies in fifty different factions

[00:01:37] Locked inside some kind of sixties battle re-enactment

[00:01:41] So I hung up my banners in disgust and I head for the door

[00:01:49] Oh but once we were young and we were crass enough to care

[00:01:57] But I guess you live and learn we won't make that mistake again

[00:02:05] But surely just for one day we could fight and we could win

[00:02:12] And if only for a little while we could insist on the impossible

[00:02:21] Well we've been a good few hours drinking

[00:02:24] So I'm going to say what everyone's thinking

[00:02:28] If we're stuck on this ship and it's sinking

[00:02:32] Then we might as well have a parade

[00:02:37] Because if it's still going to hurt in the morning

[00:02:40] And a better plan's yet to get forming

[00:02:45] Then where's the harm spending

[00:02:47] An evening in manning the old barricades

[00:02:54] So come on old friends to the streets

[00:02:57] Let's be 1905 but not 1917 let's be heroes

[00:03:03] Let's be martyrs let's be radical thinkers

[00:03:07] Who never have to test drive the least of their dreams

[00:03:11] Let's divide up the world into the damned and the saved

[00:03:14] And ride to the valley like the old Light Brigade

[00:03:18] And straighten our backs and not be afraid

[00:03:22] And they'll celebrate our deaths with a national parade

[00:03:26] So come on let's be young let's be crass enough to care

[00:03:34] Let's refuse to live and learn let's make all our mistakes again yes

[00:03:42] And then darling just for one day we can fight and we can win

[00:03:50] And if only for a little while we could insist on the impossible

[00:04:01] Leave the morning to the morning pain can be killed

[00:04:05] With aspirin tablets and vitamin pills

[00:04:09] But memories of hope and of glorious defeat

[00:04:13] Are a little bit harder to beat
