Lyrics

Moving to America

Old man, might remember,
wishing takes so long.
Grown men, might discover,
that we can sense our home.
And it hurts, and it hurts x2
…that’s why Im moving to America.
Old men, still remember,
their days of chasing gold.
Old men, now discover,
that wishing keeps you old.
And it hurts, and it hurts x2
…that’s why Im moving to America.

 

Burke and Hare

 

Twenty days without a morsel,

many more without a care.

Ulster born but far from Ulster,

the villians names…

…were Burke and Hare.

 

The first to go the four-pound pensioner,

his army days were no use then.

They took him down to Knox’s pantry,

the four-pound pensioner,

worth seven-ten.

 

They spun him ’round again.

They spun him ’round in circles.

They spun him ’round in agony.

They spun him ’round…again.

 

Ten pound a soul was the arrangement,

I never knew that life could sell.

In eighteen hundred and twenty seven,

and no-one saw where Jamie fell.

 

They spun him ’round again.

They spun him ’round in circles.

They spun him ’round in agony.

They spun him ’round…again.

 

…and poor old Burke.

 

 

Tura Mae

 

Welcome one and welcome all,

to this final scene this curtain call.

And you know that you’ll always be welcome,

and you know, that you’ll always get your way.

 

And you know, oh and you know,

and you know.

Tura Mae x 4

 

So is this he, the man you love?

Is he the one you’ve spoken of?

but you know, that he’ll never be welcome,

and you know that you’ll always get your way.

 

And you know, oh and you know,

and you know.

Tura Mae x 4
