Sinead O'Connor lyrics Famine lyrics OK, I want to talk about Ireland Specifically I want to talk about the famine About the fact that there never really was one There was no famine See Irish people were only allowed to eat potatoes All of the other food Meat fish vegetables Were shipped out of the country under armed guard To England while the Irish people starved And then on the middle of all this They gave us money not to teach our children Irish And so we lost our history And this is what I think is still hurting me See we're like a child that's been battered Has to drive itself out of it's head because it's frightened Still feels all the painful feelings But they lose contact with the memory And this leads to massive self-destruction alcoholism, drug adiction All desperate attempts at running And in it's worst form Becomes actual killing And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding All the lonely people where do they all come from An American army regulation Says you mustn't kill more than 10% of a nation 'Cos to do so causes permanent psychological damage It's not permanent but they didn't know that Anyway during the supposed famine We lost a lot more than 10% of our nation Through deaths on land or on ships of emigration But what finally broke us was not starvation but it's use in the controlling of our education Schools go on about Black 47 On and on about The terrible famine But what they don't say is in truth There really never was one (Excuse me) All the lonely people (I'm sorry, excuse me) Where do they all come from (that I can tell you in one word) All the lonely people where do they all belong So let's take a look shall we The highest statistics of child abuse in the EEC And we say we're a Christian country But we've lost contact with our history See we used to worship God as a mother We're sufferin from post traumatic stress disorder Look at all our old men in the pubs Look at all our young people on drugs We used to worship God as a mother Now look at what we're doing to each other We've even made killers of ourselves The most child-like trusting people in the Universe And this is what's wrong with us Our history books the parent figures lied to us I see the Irish As a race like a child That got itself basned in the face And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding All the lonely people Where do they all come from All the lonely people Where do they all come from Other Sinead O'Connor lyrics: I'll Tell Me Ma lyrics My Lagan Love lyrics B Fheilim lyrics The Parting Glass lyrics The Moorlough Shore lyrics Paddy's Lament lyrics Molly Malone lyrics S Do Bheatha 'Bhaile lyrics The Singing Bird lyrics Lord Franklin lyrics Her Mantle So Green lyrics Peggy Gordon lyrics Lullaby For Cain lyrics You Made Me The Thief Of Your Heart lyrics Heroine lyrics Empire--Bob The Bass lyrics Just Call Me Joe lyrics Drink Before The War lyrics I Want Your (Hands On Me) lyrics Troy lyrics Never Get Old lyrics Just Like U Said It Would B lyrics Jerusalem lyrics Mandinka lyrics Jackie lyrics I Am Enough For Myself lyrics He Moved Through The Fair lyrics This Is A Rebel Song lyrics 4 My Love lyrics Petit Poulet lyrics This Is To Mother You lyrics I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got lyrics The Last Day Of Our Acquaintance lyrics You Cause As Much Sorrow lyrics Jump In The River lyrics Nothing Compares 2 U lyrics Black Boys On Mopeds lyrics The Emperor's New Clothes lyrics Three Babies lyrics I Am Stretched On Your Grave lyrics Feel So Different lyrics Thank You For Hearing Me lyrics Tiny Grief Song lyrics In This Heart lyrics All Babies lyrics Red Football lyrics Scorn Not His Simplicity lyrics A Perfect Indian lyrics All Apologies lyrics Am I A Human lyrics My Darling Child lyrics John I Love You lyrics Fire On Babylon lyrics Scarlett Ribbons lyrics Fly Me To The Moon lyrics Almost In Your Arms lyrics My Heart Belongs To Daddy lyrics How Insensitive lyrics Love Letters lyrics Gloomy Sunday lyrics I Want To Be Loved By You lyrics Don't Cry For Me Argentina lyrics Success Has Made A Failure Of Our Home lyrics Black Coffee lyrics Secret Love lyrics Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered lyrics Why Don't You Do Right lyrics Kyrié Eléison lyrics Emma's Song lyrics If U Ever lyrics The Lamb's Book Of Life lyrics The State I'm In lyrics What Doesn't Belong To Me lyrics Hold Back The Night lyrics 'Til I Whisper U Something lyrics Daddy I'm Fine lyrics Dancing Lessons lyrics Jealous lyrics No Man's Woman lyrics The Healing Room lyrics |
