Irish Son

I was born in the heart of Dublin

To a holy book full of rules

Made get on our knees every Sunday

With the other foolsWe were warped by the Christian Brothers

In the cell blocks at our schools

Get a hand print on your skin

From a glove of jewelsGo hit me now

That I'm twice your size

We brushed off the accusations

Bowed before your liesThis is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

But it was leaving that saved meI've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past, feed your own mind

'Cause this Irish son has moved with the timesWedding's deaths and baptizing children

That's my debt paid to the church

I don't need that kind of salvation

When I get hurtDon't fill my head with sermons

And force me to believeThis is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

But it was leaving that saved meI've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past, feed your own mind

'Cause this Irish son has moved with the timesOur Father who art in Heaven

Come down here and make your presence known

We can't do it on our ownThe lunatics let run the asylum

How can we find peace inside your home

When you can't trust your ownThis is the city that raised me

With the religion they gave me

Now I'm old enough to know my own mind

But it was leaving that saved meI've seen so much that has changed me

So just break with your past, feed your own mind

Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times

Yes, this Irish son has moved with the times
