You came from DunLaoghaire town where the ferry waits to go Where the wind blows so cold but not so gently off the sea You came from DunLaoghaire town to the centre of the world Where you changed the hearts of everyone so easily Then you crossed the Irish sea to see London and beyond Where your star it rose and rose until you shone so bright Then you crossed the Irish sea and you saved a million lives But you let the ones who caused it all make you their knight All you had to do, all you had to do was say All you had to do, all you had to do was say Your Majesty, your Majesty shove your OBE Your Majesty, your Majesty shove your OBE Your Majesty, your Majesty shove your OBE Shove your OBE your Majesty Every band with half a note likes to play that rebel card They like to act so hip and radical but then Every band with half a note loves to whine about the rich But you'll still seek their approval in the end Is it true that all success has the power to corrupt us Or does everyone become what they've despised Is it true that all success makes you feel so insecure That you need to line up and be patronised. + Informações

Band: Blood or Whiskey Song: Bucharest Album: Blood or Whiskey (1999) Genre: Celtic Punk Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest I was just hoping to score I was standing there broke Laughing at some joke When the world burst throught the door I was dreaming of Stonehenge in '68 When I met your old dear On a blind date Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest I was just hoping to score Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest What was the promise you made It was 14 years since I'd shed any tears And even longer since I got laid And it was only then As I was lying there I thought I really like to change The style of my hair Shot in the head in a bar in Bucharest Blood went all over the floor There was a four piece band The biggest in the land I heard the crowd call out for more It was clear to me Anyone could tell That they had nothing to say But they said it so well. + Informações

The usual morons were fighting outside that place Inside the posing was rife I wasn't ready like you to accept them As peers for the rest of my life Poised for a picture that no one was taking You'd hang on their worlds as a rule I'd never bought that but still was afraid To get caught on the wrong side of cool Time to go sober again Same old faces and nothing is new Leaving today I'd no right to go say That I hate what they're doing to you The only one you'd ever wanted to be was yourself But they had to have more They told you to change what you thought to combine With the image that most of them wore You said if I stayed I might win their approval And that would mean so much to you I'd say I'll be back but for now all I know Is I need something different to do. + Informações

Lyrics: BLOOD & WHISKEY HEY HO Smoking guns - coppers and thugs SMOKING GUNS The sun is coming up but the morning is still black Union workers frown at the dealer selling crack A stranger walks his dog and dogs walk the blind Poor man sweeps the dirty streets He don't seem to mind Time to get out of this Time to get out of this now Out of this city HEY HO Blood and whiskey Broken rules Coppers and thugs Broken homes We've got our music - our only weapon Drunken kid bottle in hand stumbles down the street Walks straight past a homeless man No shoes around his feet Thugs down at the park with swatztika tattoos Kick around and waste some time sitting sniffing glue CHORUS YOUR CITIES NO HOPE AND GLORY. + Informações
