I'm singing this song for my sister Sinead
|
Concerning the god awful mess that she made
|
When she told them her truth just as hard as she could
|
Her message profoundly was misunderstood
|
|
There's humans entrusted with guarding our gold
|
And humans in charge of the saving of souls
|
And humans responded all over the world
|
Condemning that bald headed brave little girl
|
|
And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't
|
But so was Picasso and so were the saints
|
And she's never been partial to shackles or chains
|
She's too old for breaking and too young to tame
|
|
It's askin' for trouble to stick out your neck
|
In terms of a target a big silhouette
|
But some candles flicker and some candles fade
|
And some burn as true as my sister Sinead
|
|
And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't
|
But so was Picasso and so were the saints
|
And she's never been partial to shackles or chains
|
She's too old for breaking and too young to tame
|
