Song Lyrics:
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Alright
Oh-oh-oh
I can’t believe the news today
I can’t close my eyes, make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
Tonight, we can be as one
Tonight
Broken bottles under children’s feet
And bodies strewn across a dead end street
But I won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Back up against the wall
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Alright, let’s go
And this battle’s yet begun
There’s many lost but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
Tonight, we can be as one
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight!
Sometimes
Sometimes when I walk
Sometimes in the city I meet people
And they talk about the good old days back home
The aulde sod
Eireanu…Ireland, yessir
And they talk about the struggle
And they talk about the revolution
Glory to the struggle, they said
There’s glory to the revolution
Fuck the revolution, I said
My father is here tonight
He said to me when I was grown, he said, son
You know what Ireland is?
You know what Ireland is?
He said Ireland is a place that keeps my feet from getting wet
There’s no glory in revolution
There’s no glory in seeing your mother, your father, your sister, your brother
Shot down on your doorstep
And then 63 fucking dead
That’s not glory
So when you help me sing
No more, sing
No more
No more
No more
No more
Wipe your tears away
Wipe…what
Wipe your bloodshot eyes / Sunday bloody Sunday
Wipe your tears away / Sunday bloody Sunday
Alright
Sunday bloody Sunday / Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday / Sunday bloody Sunday
We’re so sick of it
The Edge
And it’s true we are immune
When fact is fiction, TV a reality
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
