"(F)lannigan's Ball"

"(F)lannigan's Ball"


In the town of Milton one
Brian Flannigan battered away till his money was spent
Then he hit a big one and felt like a man again,
Bought a three decker with two floors for rent

He threw a big party for friends
And relations at a grand old place called Florian Hall
And if you'll just listen I'll make your eyes glisten
To the rows and the ructions of Flannigan's ball.

[Chorus:]
Six long months I spent in quincy,
Six long months doing nothing at all,
Six long months I spent in quincy
Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball
I stepped out and I stepped in again,
I stepped out and I stepped in again,
I stepped out and I stepped in again
Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball.

Free beer on tap and wine for the ladies,
Ziti and sauce for Mark Porzio
There were faheys and bradys,
Mcauliffes and daleys courtin the girls and dancing away.

Brian tully sang out in his finest form,
The patron's responded and I lead em all
I'd spent 6 months at Forbes Academy
Learning to dance for Flannigan's ball

[Chorus]

The boys were hammered the girls were hearty
Dancing around in couples and groups
An accident happened, young Dennis Flemming
Put his right leg through miss Finneran's hoops

This gal she fainted and cried bloody murder,
Called for her sons and gathered them all,
Christopher swore he'd go no further
Till he had revenge at Flannigan's ball

[Chorus]

In the midst of the melee
Miss Collins fainted her cheeks by now were as red as a rose
Some of the boys declared she was plastered
Had a small drop too much I suppose

Young Scotty Jenkins so big and able
Saw his fair colleen stretched by the wall
Tore the left leg from under the table
And smashed all the dishes at Flannigan's ball

Boy oh boy now this was a rumble
Myself took a lick from mean Ricky Green
But I soon replied to that fine introduction
And gave him a terrible kick in the spleen

Talent the piper nearly got strangled,
They squeezed on his bellows, chanters and all,
The girls in the middle nearly got trampled
And that put an end to Flannigan's ball

[Chorus]

"10 Years Of Service"

"10 Years Of Service"


The status of our future in both past and present time,
is relegated to a member of a higher class than mine.
To determine and direct the lives of family men who bear the burden
of living up to standard that doesn't exist in 1999

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save us from this lonely picket line,
10 years of service but I'm still not worth your time.

Times may be changing but I'll never leave behind the hopes
and thoughts I have of better days for families such as mine.
Because if history repeats itself and time will surely tell.
What goes around is gonna come around and you'll know our pain too well.

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save us from this lonely picket line,
10 years of service but I'm still not worth your time.
And I've seen men give their lives,
and heard the stories that they tell of how they labored
for this company which sold it's soul to hell

[Repeat 1st verse]

[Chorus]
Who's gonna save us from this lonely picket line,
10 years of service but I'm still not worth your time.
And I've seen men give their lives,
and heard the stories that they tell of how they labored
for this company which sold it's soul to hell

Who's gonna save us from this lonely picket line,
10 years of service but I'm still not worth your time.

"1953"

"1953"



On that snowy bright December day
She came and took my breath away
It was there I met my love so fair
A beauty oh so true and rare

For who we are and what we'll be
I'll sing your praise eternally
When I was lost you carried on
When I was weak you kept us strong

You walk the line so gracefully
Of friendship, love and loyalty
In troubled times you did your best
Of lesser strength I must confess

For who we are and what we'll be
I'll sing your praise eternally
When I was lost you carried on
When I was weak you kept us strong

As seasons come and seasons pass
The bond we know will always last
We built a life remaining true
I pledge my heart and soul to you

For who we are and what we'll be
I'll sing your praise eternally
The miles we've shared I'd trade but few
They're the ones that kept me away from you

On that snowy bright December day
She came and took my breath away
It was there I met my love so fair
A beauty oh so true and rare

For who we are and what we'll be
I'll sing your praise eternally
When I was lost you carried on
When I was weak you kept us strong

"21 Guitar Salute"
(originally by The Press)



Ready, Aim, Fire

You work all fucking week,
go out on Friday night
You're looking for some action
and you settle for a fight

Okay, steady, get ready
everybody pull in the loot
We got the equalizer
it's a 21 guitar salute

It's a 21 guitar salute, it's a 21 guitar salute
It's a...

We saw him sitting there,
a-drinking my beer
And I went in for the war
it's 7 o'clock on a Saturday night and I'm so fucking bored

Okay, steady, get ready
everybody gets to shoot
We got a 21 gun salution
it's a 21 guitar salute

It's a 21 guitar salute, it's a 21 guitar salute
It's a...

Okay, steady, get ready
everybody pull in the loot
We got the equalizer
it's a 21 guitar salute

It's a 21 guitar salute, it's a 21 guitar salute
It's a...

I hear the sounds of marching feet in the distance
and there's a bloody revolution in the air
And I know what this looks like, but it isn't
'cause I just want to blow something up

"3rd Man In"

"3rd Man In"


My friends, my town, camaraderie
We'll never finish last
We stood as one where are they now
We grew up fast
Too young to know or really give a shit
The past has left us worse for wear

[Chorus:]
Be strong and stand, stand up like a man
Your concept of friendship isn't right
Third man in is how you show you care
Nothing else matters but the fight!

Some will survive
I hope I'm one of them
Things aren't what they use to be
It makes me sick
Our bond has broke and we aren't what we were
It's time to face life on my own

[Chorus x3]

"A Few Good Men"

"A Few Good Men"


It's time we stood up for ourselves so get up off your knees.
We'll shake off our detractors and attain our hopes and dreams
and if we fall prey to in-fighting, we're never gonna win,
so put aside your differences, sing loud, sing proud

We won't listen to their stories or be waylaid by their lies
it's a dram that's still attainable for kids like you and I
So if we all stand together singing one defiant song
our voice will reach the heavens, so sing with all your heart

[Chorus:]
Join us in a song
we shall rise and sing stand up and be counted
sing a song for liberty join us in this song
together we shall sing rise up and be counted
sing it loud, sing it proud

We've been brutalized and crucified, the brunt of their attacks,
is corruption not their trademark and compassion what they lack?
If we can realize our common goals,
the end of which is plain united and now stronger,
their loss is now our gain!

"Alcohol"
(originally by Gang Green)



We're gonna die when the sun comes up
We'll drink until we drop
My blood's one hundred proof
We're gonna stumble twist and crawl
Got 99 bottles of beer on the wall
I'd rather drink than fuck

No doubt about it
Can't live without it
No doubt about it
I can't live without it, alcohol
Alcohol

Why it's my destiny?
You get the beer
We get the time
You get the coke, gimme a line

No doubt about it
Can't live without it
No doubt about it
I can't live without it, alcohol

We're gonna die when the sun comes up
We'll drink until we drop
My blood's one hundred proof
We're gonna stumble twist and crawl
Got 99 bottles of beer on the wall
I'd rather drink than fuck

You get the beer
We get the time
You get the coke, gimme a line

No doubt about it
Can't live without it
No doubt about it
I can't live without it
Alcohol

"Amazing Grace (Traditional)"
(although this song sounds like just an instrumental, the lyrics are actually there, just very low down in the mix)

"Amazing Grace (Traditional)"
(although this song sounds like just an instrumental, the lyrics are actually there, just very low down in the mix)



Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved,
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

"As One"

"As One"


Tonight my son I'll heed the call. If you're to live, then I must fall.

Just give me one more moment, another walk out in the sun
one more day to find some justice with your shadow by my side
Cuff me, tie me, lock me down, cause I'll be back to go another round

As one- my blood runs red beneath the knife,
I'll give my soul to you tonight

From early on I was on my own with no light to guide my way,
then the hand of destiny called me only now I understand
Interwoven our lives became, bonded by blood, no need to be repayed

As one... [twice]

Just give me one more moment with your shadow by my side
and we will always be together as one
