lyrics

THE MAGNETS

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MAGNETS
NOW HEAR US WHEN WE SAY
WE'RE WORKING CLASS AND PROUD
AND PLAN TO STAY THAT WAY

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MAGNETS
THE PISTOLS, JAM, AND CLASH
BLEW IT ALL APART
SO WE COULD MAKE A START

LATER ON WE'LL HAVE THE DOORS SLAMMED IN OUR FACE
BUT WE'LL RESOLVE TO KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON
DOWN THE ROAD WE'LL HAVE AN ARGUMENT OR TWO
BUT WE'LL MAKE UP AND WRITE ANOTHER SONG
CALLED ''WALK BACK RENEE'' 'CAUSE ''I DID YOU KNOW NO WRONG''

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MAGNETS
WE'RE TRYING TO PULL A CROWD
THREE YOUNG DUBLIN KIDS
PLAYING HARD AND LOUD

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MAGNETS
WE'RE ANGRY BUT WE'RE FUN
WE'VE BROKE OUT OF THE RUT
WE'RE HEADING TOWARDS THE SUN

AND IF WE NEVER MAKE IT TO THE TOP
AT LEAST WE'LL SAY WE STAYED TRUE TO OURSELVES
WHEN WE'RE OLD MEN OF FIFTY-FIVE OR MORE
WE'LL LOOK BACK AND HOPEFULLY BE PROUD
OF WHAT WE TRIED TO DO.....OF STAYING ON THE LEFT...AND BEING THERE FOR YOU

HEY HEY WE'RE THE MAGNETS
