An Spailpín Fánach is thrilled to offer visitors and exclusive sneak preview of the new U2 single, which features our heroes in a return to one of their first and greatest hits, given a contemporary slant. Take it away (whoops!) boys!
I can’t believe the revenue
Sent a letter to the members of U2
When will,
When will you pay your taxes?
When will? When will?
Cowen’s raising taxes no matter who you are
Don’t he know it’s not cheap to be a star?
But we’ve thought up of a plan
Pack our bags up,
Pack our bags for Amsterdam
Taxes, bloody taxes
Taxes, bloody taxes
Taxes, bloody taxes (taxes, bloody taxes)
Toothbrush packed, I’m off!
Third world debt really bothers me
But not as much as the Irish VAT
They must be smoking something funny
To think I’ll sponsor any Irish dole bunny
Taxes, bloody taxes
Taxes, bloody taxes
Cause tonight ... I’m keeping all my money
Tonight...
Tonight...
Taxes, bloody taxes (tonight)
Tonight
Taxes, bloody taxes (tonight)
(Won’t pay none!)
Take your bills away
Take your bills away
Take your bills away
Take your bills away
I won’t pay your bills today
Taxes, bloody taxes
Taxes, bloody taxes (taxes, bloody taxes)
Taxes, bloody taxes (taxes, bloody taxes)
(Not for me!)
