Longing for the land of my lineage I am dying here, in Beggar Country Here, where fools act the wise Pseudo Intellectualism steadily on the rise Where the disease celebritism has took hold Forced out the tried and true for the shiny yet old Where the idiom The more things that change, the more remains the same Is unquestionably fact I long for Ireland I long to go back Give me land that's green And rolling countryside Give me tide to rival hell's fury And people that mean well, amid gales so dreary I miss fog Like that kicked up by the mire Give me land that's hungry Give me people that's tired
