Arrive On St. Patrick's Day

Shake the dust from your eyes and wake up from your sadness 
Lock it up and throw away the key 
Leave the long years behind and wake up from your madness 
Give it up, we're shipping out today

Now the captain roars when we drop our oars 
and we're living in a puddle of decay 
But now we have no fear for the dock is near 
and we long for Dublin bay (hey!)

Cheers to you and the rest of the world 
Ah, we're dying to see yiz again 
Cheers to you, we're the best of the worst 
We'll arrive on St. Patrick's day

Breaks the day like a fire now I'm crippled with gladness 
I lap it up and cry away away the glee 
Left the others behind and forgot about the badness 
Gave it up, but shaking all the same

For a man is wise when he knows his vice 
When he’s livin’ in in a muddle of dismay 
Yeah we have no fear for the end is near 
And we long for Dublin bay (hey!)

Cheers to you and the rest of the world 
Ah, we're dying to see yiz again 
Cheers to you, we're the best of the worst 
We'll arrive on St. Patrick's day

Take a look at the lies and remember the faces, 
covered up and bow their heads in shame 
There’s a life left to live now we’ll take all our chances 
 [bad word] home and burying the blame

Now the captain roars when we drop our oars 
and we're living in a puddle of dismay 
But now we have no fear for the dock is near 
and we long for Dublin bay
