Smugglers & Scholars

Music: Dan Carey Mhúscail sibh an fáthach, ní duine maslach mé, but I'm past that Ár n-athair atá lán de agro, focan fág na cunts mar creatlach Níl mé ach ag magadh Get me back on the leash, madadh Embarrassed the police, the magistrates, the prosecution agus an Bhreitheamh I'll never learn my lesson Always be government's obsession Talk of the town when I'm walking around, tá do mháthair gafa liom freisin Calling me sceimhleitheoir, never heard that said before Buíochas le dia gur luaigh sibh sin liom, I'd mostly been lying in bed before
Smugglers and scholars Getting guns with American dollars Did it before, do it again, no bother Don't need your help with internal matters Smugglers and scholars Getting guns with American dollars Did it before, do it again, no bother Don't need your help with internal matters
Níl faic a dhéanann muidinne nios fearr Scrios ar an rialtas ó bun go barr Ar fad in sa stair éirí amach gach glúin Ní luíonn muid síos ró éasca, ciúin Let me bring it all back to the start In sa cheantar seo you're gonna go far Má léirionn tú meas do na daoine ar fad A tháinig romhat agus a d'imigh tríd slad A mhair tríd an ifreann thanks be to god 'Cause na sé chontae was an awful slog Is muid an drúcht geal ceo ag cuir i gcuimhne dó Go n-éirionn an fhuiseog beo in sa cheol Éist Is gan dabht Bhí muid fágtha le cnoc an anfa Thit sé anuas and nai we're laughin' Got it all nai and we started with nathin

Soilse gorma sa tsráid Cuirfidh muid glaoch ar na bais Iad siúd atá i gceannas no lies Anois tá teannas outside But the neighbours are wise Staying put 'cause they're not no spies Ingearán thuas and it's nai doing laps Thart anseo níl trust do na cops And the boys in black at the shops With the petrol bombs and their favourite rocks
Is breá liom mo phobail Still keep my head down, suas le mo chochall Siúil taobh sráide, movements subtle Man of a few words, cúplá focal You think it's all poetry and clovers When it's raincoats and police Land Rovers Salt of the earth, looking over their shoulder Someone shot in turf, chopper hovering over Seo Fenian gluaiseacht Coinnigh gach rud druidte seachas cluasa Joyriders déanamh scrios ar ghluaisteáin Ceantar seo thuas seal, thíos seal It's not Catchphrase, don't say what you see Splinter groups ag an doras san oích They won't need a warrant, and they won't need keys 'Cause they've got an appointment with your son's knees
