[00:00:00] Poor Old Ireland (BBC Radio One's ''Sounds Of The 70s'' 8/5/72) - Lindisfarne

[00:00:21] Poor old Ireland poor old universe

[00:00:25] Wonder who comes off the worse

[00:00:30] Poor old people mistreating misbelieving

[00:00:35] I think you've been cast by a curse

[00:00:39] But I don't want you to die

[00:00:42] I can see all the lies

[00:00:45] There's nothing there that's new

[00:00:49] But there's still no need to make blind children bleed

[00:00:54] Even if what you say is true

[00:00:59] And meanwhile in the aisles of the churches with style

[00:01:04] They're singing their songs to the Lord

[00:01:08] And the preacher's carping that for failure on earth

[00:01:14] Heaven will be your reward

[00:01:21] Poor old Ireland tortured by past

[00:01:26] And tarnished by future's curse

[00:01:31] Poor old Ireland poor old planet

[00:01:35] Poor old universe

[00:02:00] Oh Ireland your people mean more than the idols

[00:02:04] You seek to set upon high

[00:02:10] And the day that you see that's the day

[00:02:13] That all of your sadness and sickness will die

[00:02:21] For the enemy you seek to destroy

[00:02:25] Is not the one who's causing the pain

[00:02:31] He's disguised himself well with his book and his bell

[00:02:36] But evil is still his name

[00:02:44] Poor old Ireland tortured by past

[00:02:49] Tarnished by future's curse

[00:02:54] Poor old Ireland poor old universe

[00:02:59] Wonder who comes off the worse
