Joy Keane Lyrics

Baby, baby, big baby, just roll your sleeves up and do a job, just get on with the game

God only knows

How I'm dying to give 1916 another go

It'd be grand so

To get same-day deliverance from the GPO

I've a relentless Republican vendetta

All arguments have been made better

But I wanna burn the butcher's apron tether

I'm only asking for what's right

For every day and every night

To be as joyous as the time when Queen Elizabeth fucking died

One, two, three, four

I know in my soul it's no impossible dream

A united Ireland for you and me

Go straight through the Union at full steam

No more kings and no more queens

Plant a flag where their heads used to be

And remake paradise pristine

End their careers, we'll captain our own team

Seo libh canaig Amhran na BhFiann

Oh, how I wish you were my father

I'd make you so proud in my tricolour balaclava

All I want is the nonsense to stop

You saved my soul but that's just doing your job

And God only knows

Every time I fall asleep

I dream in Japanese

Of what might have been in 2002

If only we'd had you, you, you

One, two, three, four

I know in my soul it's no impossible dream

A united Ireland for you and me

Go straight through the Union at full steam

No more kings and no more queens

Plant a flag where their heads used to be

And remake paradise pristine

End their careers, we'll captain our own team

Seo libh canaig Amhran na BhFiann

You're the finest sight I've ever seen

Go straight through your legs at full steam

Say my name, baby, it's Joy Keane
