(O`Connor, Clayton, Simenon, Reynolds) [The extended version of "Famine", released in 1995, from the cd-single "Famine"] There is more in us than we know about. The famine, which happened 150 years ago. ItжЉЇ three lifetimes at most. Things that happen than were handed on from father to son, from mother to daughter, down to this day. They are within us now, and we donжЉ° deal with them. And it seems to me, this is whatжЉЇ interesting about a lot of Irish music now, that it is the carrier for this kind of feeling, and for this kind of emotion, that we have no other expression for it because politically we deny it, intellectually we deny it. Our literature ....... doesnжЉ° deal with this, our sentiment doesnжЉ° deal with this. But music, itжЉЇ in the music, it seems to me. The culture can actually carry those things in al kinds of visible ways, in gesture, in movement, in language, in humour and in music. Okay, I want to talk about Ireland Specifically I want to talk about the "famine" About the fact that there never really was one There was no "famine" See Irish people were only allowed to eat potatoes All of the other food, meat, fish, vegetables, were shipped out of the country under armed guard To England while the Irish people starved And then in the middle of all this They gave us money not to teach our children Irish And so we lost our history And this is what I think is still hurting me You see we`re like a child that`s been battered Has to drive itself out of it`s head because it`s frightened Still feels all the painful feelings But they lose contact with the memory And this leads to massive self-destruction Alcoholism, drug addiction All desperate attempts at running And in it`s worst form Becomes actual killing And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding All the lonely people Where do they all come from All the lonely people Where do they all belong An American army regulation Says you mustn`t kill more than ten percent of a nation `Cos to do so causes permanent "psychological damage" It`s not permanent but they didn`t know that Anyway during the supposed "famine" We lost a lot more than 10% of our nation Through deaths on land or on ships of emigration But what finally broke us is not starvation No it`s use in the controlling of our education School go on about "Black 47" On and on about "The terrible famine" But what they don`t say is in truth There really never was one All the lonely people Where do they all come from All the lonely people where do they all belong So let`s take a look can we The highest statistics of child abuse in the EEC And we say we`re a Christian country But we`ve lost contact with our history See we used to worship God as a mother We`re suffering from post traumatic stress disorder Look at all our old men in the pubs Look at all our young people on drugs We used to worship God as a mother Now look at what we`re doing to each other We`ve even made killers of ourselves The most child-like trusting people in the Universe And this is what`s wrong with us Our history books the parent figures lied to us I see the Irish As a race like a child That got itself smashed in the face And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding All the lonely people Where do they all come from All the lonely people Where do they all belong All the lonely people Where do they all come from (That I can tell you in one word) All the lonely people Where do they all belong And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding And if there ever is gonna be healing There has to be remembering And then grieving So that there then can be forgiving There has to be knowledge and understanding We stand on the brink of a great achievement In this Ireland there is no solution To be found to our disagreements By shooting each other Because of our tradition everyone here knows who he is and what God expects him to do Forgiveness, forgiveness Knowledge Yes And understanding Forgiveness Equate, be driven Frogiveness Knowledge Yes And understanding (repeat the above several times)
