Well it was way back in the 40's from the western part you came
And in them rocky fields of Connacht our ancestors were no more than slaves
But once we knew higher things and that comes out in you
Your tearful voice, your natural grace and your sad Irish face
ATTACK ATTACK
Oh I know that I've been crazy and that cannot be denied
But inside of me there's always been a secret urge to fly
You see I dreamed about things, the brightest things
I know(I know?) You know what I mean
Cos in my youngest years it seemed to me that anything was possible
(I got to, you got to) We all got to do "our" thing now, I got to make a life that's right for me
(I got to, you got to) Everybody's got a different role now, one thing I got to say to make you know," I love you so"
I was always dreaming of some way (Some way?) that I could be (you know?)
Another look, I knew his style of some life fantasy
And though i did not make my dreams come true, I did the best that I could do
(everybody say)
(I got to,you got to) We all got to do "our" thing now, I got to make a life that's right for me
(I got to, you got to) Everybody's got a different role now, one thing I got to say to make you know," I love you so"
I got to go...
I got to go...
We've got to go...
I don't want to go...
WE'VE GOT TO GO!!!
I wanna go..no?
I don't wanna go!
WE'VE GOT TO GO!!!
YOU'VE got to go!
Oh alright then....

Dexys Midnight Runners

Dexys Midnight Runners (currently officially Dexys, their common nickname; sometimes styled with and sometimes without an apostrophe) are an English pop band with soul influences, who achieved their major success in the early to mid-1980s. They are best known in the UK for their songs “Come On Eileen” and “Geno”, both of which peaked at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart, as well as six other top-20 singles.

During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dexys went through numerous personnel changes over the course of three albums and thirteen singles, with only singer/songwriter/co-founder Kevin Rowland remaining in the band through all of the transitions and only Rowland and “Big” Jim Paterson (trombone) appearing on all of the albums. By 1985, the band consisted only of Rowland and long-standing members Helen O'Hara (violin) and Billy Adams (guitar). The band broke up in 1987, with Rowland becoming a solo artist. After two failed restart attempts, Dexys was reformed by Rowland in 2003 with new members, as well as a few returning members from the band’s original lineup (known as Dexys Mark I). Dexys released their fourth album in 2012 and a fifth followed in 2016.
