?[00:08.10]I can hear the bells of Dublin
[00:12.37]In this lonely waiting room
[00:16.78]And the paperboys are singing in the rain
[00:24.24]Not too long before they take us
[00:28.91]To the airport and the noise
[00:33.46]To get on board a transatlantic plane
[00:41.08]We've got nothing left to stay for
[00:45.43]We had no more left to say
[00:49.76]And there isn't any work for us to do
[00:57.46]So farewell ye boys and girls
[01:01.92]Another bloody Flight of Earls
[01:06.21]Our best asset is our best export too
[01:14.19]It's not murder fear or famine
[01:18.69]That makes us leave this time
[01:22.81]We're not going to join
[01:25.12]McAlpine's Fusileers
[01:30.76]We've got brains and we've got visions
[01:35.20]We've got education too
[01:39.25]But we just can't throw away these precious years
[01:46.99]So we walk the streets of London
[01:51.73]And the streets of Baltimore
[01:55.87]And we meet at night in several Boston bars
[02:03.63]We're the leaders of the future
[02:08.24]But we're far away from home
[02:12.38]And we dream of you beneath the Irish stars
[02:19.10]
[02:28.63]As we look on Ellis Island and the Lady in the bay
[02:37.20]And Manhattan turns to face another Sunday
[02:45.19]We just wonder what you're doing to bring us all back home
[02:53.89]As we look forward to another Monday
[03:01.72]Because it's not the work that scares us
[03:06.10]We don't mind an honest job
[03:10.22]And we know things will get better
[03:13.98]once again
[03:18.18]So a thousand times adieu
[03:22.67]We've got Bono and U2
[03:26.86]All we're missing is the Guinness and the rain
[03:34.96]So switch off your new computers
[03:39.21]Cause the writing's on the wall
[03:43.78]We're leaving as our fathers did before
[03:51.67]Take a look at Dublin airport or the boat that leaves North Wall
[04:00.02]There'll be no Youth Unemployment any more
[04:08.13]Because we're over here in Queensland
[04:12.31]And in parts of New South Wales
[04:16.51]We're on the seas and airways and the trains
[04:24.70]But if we see better days
[04:28.89]Those big airplanes go both ways
[04:33.13]And we'll all be coming back to you again
[04:41.07]Yes we'll all be coming back to you again
[04:49.39]
