Horslips

Horslips are an Irish celtic rock band that compose, arrange and perform songs based on traditional Irish jigs and reels. The group are regarded as 'founding fathers of celtic rock' for their fusion of traditional Irish music with rock music and went on to inspire many local and international acts. They formed in 1970 and 'retired' in 1980 for an extended period. The name originated from a spoonerism on The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse which became "The Four Poxmen of The Horslypse". more »

Into the flash of the lightning star-riders are hurled, 
See them bumping and grinding bareback on the wheels of the world, 
You can see the dawn a'coming or is that the flash of a spear, 
Ah, the day will come, the dawn will break: 
The day breaks here. 

We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 

People say we've got the power, the phrase I think is hearts and minds, 
Never mind where we came from, we've left our history books behind. 
Not so much teachers as fighters, and what we teach is how we fight, 
And we're going to ring the changes, we're going to ring em, 
Ring 'em right. 

We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 

We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it from here. 
We've got the power and the glory, we're going to take it, we're going to take it. 
We're going to take it, we're going to take it.
