《The Flight Of Earls》歌词

[00:00:00] The Flight Of Earls - Paddy Reilly/Mundy

[00:00:08] I can hear the bells of dublin

[00:00:12] In this lonely waiting room

[00:00:16] And the paperboys are singing

[00:00:20] In the rain

[00:00:24] Not too long before they take us

[00:00:29] To the airport and the noise

[00:00:33] To get on board a transatlantic plane

[00:00:41] We've got nothing left to stay for

[00:00:45] We have no more left to say

[00:00:50] And there isn't any work

[00:00:53] For us

[00:00:54] To do

[00:00:57] So farewell ye boys and girls

[00:01:02] Another bloody flight of earls

[00:01:06] Our best asset

[00:01:07] Is our best export too

[00:01:14] It's not murder fear or famine

[00:01:18] That makes us leave this time

[00:01:23] We're not going to join

[00:01:25] McAlpine's fusileers

[00:01:31] We've got brains and we've got vision

[00:01:35] We've got education too

[00:01:39] But we just can't throw away these precious years

[00:01:47] So we walk the streets

[00:01:50] Of London

[00:01:52] And the streets

[00:01:53] Of baltimore

[00:01:56] And we meet at night

[00:01:58] In several boston bars

[00:02:04] We're the leaders of the future

[00:02:08] But we're far away from home

[00:02:12] And we dream of you beneath

[00:02:16] The irish stars

[00:02:28] As we look

[00:02:30] On ellis island

[00:02:33] And the lady in the bay

[00:02:37] And Manhattan

[00:02:38] Turns to face

[00:02:41] Another sunday

[00:02:45] We just wonder what you're doing

[00:02:49] For to bring us all back home

[00:02:54] As we look forward to another monday

[00:03:01] But it's not the work

[00:03:04] That scares us

[00:03:06] We don't mind

[00:03:07] An honest job

[00:03:10] And we know things will get better

[00:03:14] Once

[00:03:15] Again

[00:03:18] So a thousand times adieu

[00:03:22] We've got bono and u2

[00:03:27] All we're missing is the guinness

[00:03:31] And the rain

[00:03:35] So switch off

[00:03:36] Your new

[00:03:37] Computers

[00:03:39] 'Cause the writing's on the wall

[00:03:43] We're leaving

[00:03:45] As our fathers did before

[00:03:51] Take a look

[00:03:53] At dublin

[00:03:54] Airport

[00:03:56] Or the boat that leaves north wall

[00:04:00] There'll be no youth

[00:04:02] Unemployment

[00:04:03] Anymore

[00:04:08] Because we're over here in queensland

[00:04:12] And in parts

[00:04:13] Of new south wales

[00:04:16] We're on the seas the airways

[00:04:21] And the trains

[00:04:25] But if we see

[00:04:26] Better days

[00:04:29] Those big airplanes go both ways

[00:04:33] And we'll all be coming back

[00:04:36] To you again

[00:04:41] Yes

[00:04:41] We'll all be coming back

[00:04:45] To you again
