I heard sirens up on Mizen Head
And I saw storm clouds too
It brought a message from the deep sea bed
And all the squadrons they withdrew

Verse 2 
I took a boat out past the Fastnet rock
Thinking she might know what to do
I sailed my spinnaker to her building blocks
And her lifeless lights said she knew

Chorus 
She said tell this great Island of bloodshed and violence and a storm like they've never seen before
A tempest of violence that humbles and silences all like they've never seen before


Verse 3 
I sailed my boat east of Bantry Bay
Lead ammunition rain falling down
And we crashed into those tarmacadam waves
I sailed through roaringwater sound

Verse 4 
I spoke to the people there but they didn't listen back
I told them of the sirens and these storm clouds out back
The fury of this sulfur and the squadrons that turned back
But they didn't want to know, they didn't want to know

Verse 5 
So I sailed my boat out of Roaringwater Bay
I brought a compass and a dog
We spoke in a language that no one understood
We sang it's a dogs life in the fog

Chorus 
And I told this great Island of bloodshed and violence of a storm like they've never seen before
And a temper and violence that humbles and silences all like they've never seen before

Verse 6 
I sailed my boat East to Dublin in a storm
I hit Wexford like a wall
	Fishermen will see before anyone else can see
They didn't see this at all

Verse 7 
I spoke to the city but she did not listen back
I told her of the sirens and these storm clouds out back
The fury of the sulfur and the squadrons that turned back
But she didn't want to know, she didn't want to know

Chorus 
He said tell this great Island of bloodshed and violence and a storm, like they've never seen before
