TAKE AWAY
(Kelfam/Kelfam)

At eighteen years old I ran the farm
As these men came in with arms
They burnt the house, they took our lands
They broke us living clans
My father said, if you want to live
Then fight them like a man
So I punched their nose and I kicked their arse
But then my hands were cuffed

Take away, take away, take away, take away my son...
Give a little heartbreak, give a little soul...

Six hungry years behind the bars was not enough for me
To change my mind to fightin' for my brothers from the tree
So at twenty-four I got on a horse and fought my enemy
But at the fields of play they shot me in the back
But at least I did die free

Take away, take away, take away, take away my son...
Give a little heartbreak, give a little soul...

Lalala lalala...
Take away, take away, take away, take away my son...

Now my body's dead but the spirit lives
Up here with all the saints
St. Patrick and I are having fun
Drinking tons of beer
Meanwhile on earth the Irish clans
Are fighting for their lands
I wish I were there with a gun in my hand
Fighting for them to be free

Take away, take away, take away, take away my son...
 




TAKE MY HAND
 (Kelfam/Kelfam)

So take my hand, you are my brother
So take my hand, you are my sister
So take my hand, we need each other
Don't try to walk the road alone

Through the dark we'll walk together
Through the rain, forget the weather
Through the storm we'll sing our song
Why try to walk the road alone

I'll take your hand, I need my brother
I'll take your hand, I need my sister
I'll take your hand, we need each other
Don't need to walk the road alone
Don't need to walk the road alone

So take my hand...

Through the dark...

I'll take your hand, I need my brother
I'll take your hand, I need my sister
I'll take your hand, we need each other
Don't need to walk the road alone
Don't need to walk the road alone
Don't try to walk the road alone
Don't try to walk the road alone
 




THE ROSE

Some say love, it is a river, that drowns a tender reef.
Some say love, it is a razor, that leeds a soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger, an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower, and you it's only seed.

It's the soul, afraid of dreaming, that never learns to dance.
It's the soul, afraid of waking, that never takes a chance.
It's the one, who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give,
And the soul, afraid of dyin' that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long,
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong,
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the Rose.
 




THE SWAN

Did you feed the swan?
Did you feed the swan?
Father did you feed the swan?
Did you feed the swan?
Did you feed the swan?
Father did you feed the swan?

Every single morning when I get up
I feed them like him
Every single morning when I get up
Oh, I like him

Why did he go away?
Why did he go away?
Father why did he go away?
Why did he go away?
Why did he go away?
Father why did he go?

I used to feed him...
I used to did not like him
Is he coming back?...
He's coming next spring...
Did you feed the swan?...
 




THE WOLF
(Kelfam/Kelfam)

Watch out, children, there's a wolf out there
Open up your eyes, son, 'cause he's gonna get you
Lock your door at night 'cause he's gonna eat you
Don't try fighting beasts 'cause he's gonna beat you
Watch out, children, there's a wolf out there
Never run against the wind 'cause he's gonna win
If there's any doubt in your mind
Check and see if it's full moon out tonight
Check and see if he's got a tail
Don't forget to check his nails

Guardian angel, guardian angel
Stay with me, I'm on my knees...

Watch out, children, there's a wolf out there
He ain't got no sweet mercy, he's only crazy
Danger's got you running scared, can you tell me why you're going
Take a good look in his eyes, don't shake his hand too tight
Be aware of Greek gifts, he's the son of a bitch
Your taste is in his mouth, he wants to have you now
Yeah, what are we gonna do with this big mean wolf
What are we gonna do
We're gonna whack him, smack him, spank him, yeah

Watch out, children, there's a wolf out there
Open up your eyes, son, 'cause he's gonna get you
Lock your door at night 'cause he's gonna eat you
Don't try fighting beasts 'cause he's gonna beat you

Guardian angel, guardian angel
Stay with me, I'm on my knees...

Watch out, children, he is somewhere I can see him
Carry guns and knives tonight, save your ass tonight
Watch out, children!!

THUNDER

I came down to see you
But you were never there
You were always lonely
Somewhere
I came down to love you
But you were never there
But you're always parting
Somewhere

Hold on, don't leave me lonely
Hold on, don't leave me lonely
Hold on, don't go without me

Tell me whats the game now
Cause I'm feeling kind of jealous
You're going out with friends now
Somewhere

I'm gonna get my guitar
And strum down all the pain
I think I'm going crazy, beware

Hold on, don't ...
I'm gonna let nobody,
Gonna let nobody love you
Gonna let nobody love

Thunder bloody bloody thunder
Bloody thunder is on its way
Thunder bloody bloody ...

I came down to see you
But you were never there
You just left me lonely
Somewhere

Hold on, don't ...

I'm gonna le nobody,
Gonna let nobody love you
Gonna let nobody love
 




TOO MANY WAYS
(Kelfam/Kelfam)

Too many ways, too many sides
Too many words, too many dreams
Too many lows, too many highs
So many things we wanna know

Why do we sing, why do we dance
Why do we stay, why do we go
Why do we cry, why do we smile
So many things we wanna know

He became father of many children
And to others he gave his love away
And took them in a world in trouble
He became a symbol day by day

When do we know, when do we see
When things are right, when things are wrong
That's why we sing, to find ourselves
So many things we wanna know

She became mother of many children
And to others she gave her love away
And took them in a world in trouble
She became a symbol day by day
 




TRY AND FORGIVE
(Kathy Kelly/Kelfam)

Try and forgive, try and forget
Forgive yourself and your friends and try not to hurt again

From every side you feel condemned: stones, stones and stones.

Hate only kills, blind falls the heart
It pains the head and your friends, too, and ties are...

Well, I ... will not condemn you.

Back all my friends, don't take it cut
And let the angry ones ..., just sing and smile and laugh

And forgive yourself, yes forgive yourself, as I have forgiven you.

Secrets of life are hard to find
So get your ... to this one, good cheese, bread and wine

And feel forgiving, that's important, feel forgiving.

To this one, good cheese, bread and wine

And forgive others as well.

To this one, good cheese, bread and wine
 




TWO FRONT TEETH
(Gardener)

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you a merry Christmas

It seems so long since I could say:
Sister Sissel sitting on a sissel
Every time I try to speak
All I do is whistle

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you a merry Christmas

Good old Santa and his reindeer
They used to bring me lots of toys and candy
I call for hamster, ramster, honnor and blitzer
None of them can understand me

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth, see my two front teeth
Gee if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you a merry Christmas
