Irish Lyrics


I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
"I'm not fit for soldier"
I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
"I'm not fit for soldier"
I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
"I'm not fit for soldier"
I said to me da, I said to me da, I said to me da
"I'm not fit for soldier"
For the king, he say, the king, he say
For now you fight or I'll take your land away
For the king, he say, the king, he say
For now you fight or I'll take your land away
So over the seas, over the seas
To kill a man that I have never seen
Over the seas, over the seas
Over the seas, over the seas
Over the seas, over the seas
I won't die for England

Not for England
Not for England
I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma
"I sail away now"
I said to me ma, said to me ma, said to me ma
"I sail away now"
Over the seas, over the seas
Far away from my Ireland
Over the seas, over the seas
Far and away from miles of green
For the king, he say, the king, he say
For now you fight or I'll take your children
For the king, he say, the king, he say
For now you fight or I'll take your children
So they send me away, they send me away
To kill a man that I have never seen
They send me away, they send me away
They send me away, they send me away
They send me away, they send me away
I won't die for England
Not for England
Far away from my homeland
Many miles, many miles I would roam
Far from my home
Far from my home
Far from my home
Far and far away
Far and far away
Far away, far away
Far, far
I won't die for England
Not for England
No, not for England
No, not for England
Not for England

Famously described by John Peel as being "always different, always the same", The Fall were formed in Manchester, England in 1976 during the punk era although their style quickly evolved into something more idiosyncratic.

The one permanent fixture amidst the Fall's ever-changing line-up is Mark E. Smith. Smith's lyrics are free, unboxed and unpredictable, touching on an extremely wide range of subjects and places, and caring little for being tied down to easily digestible messages.
