Lyrics: Alan Doonican / Scott Doonican / Amanda White

lyrics

I can’t believe the news I’ve seen
The bike that you fell off got knighted by Queen
You’re one of Ireland’s favourite sons
But you would rather pay tax to the Netherlands
How long - how long must you sing your songs?
How long, how long

Cause tonight, why can’t you just get stagefright

D’you still want to run on unnamed streets?
When booking plane tickets, your hat gets its own seat!
And I can’t help but wonder why
You have to look like you’re Jeff Goldblum in the fly

Bono, Bloody Bono

Have you found what you’re looking for?
If not then dun’t wear sunglasses when you’re indoors
For Africa you made such fuss
Well tonight thank God that it was them instead of us

Bono, Bloody Bono

How long - How long must this song go on?
How long, how long

Cause you’re shite… you’re Ireland’s new potato blight

Bono, Bloody Bono

Please just go away
Just call it a day
Burn out and fade away (Bono, Bloody Bono)
D’ya know the way to San Jose? (Bono, Bloody Bono)
That’s not far enough away (Bono, Bloody Bono)
How about the Milky Way (Bono, Bloody Bono)

Bono, Bloody Bono (Bono, Bloody Bono)

Your sneaky itunes giveaway
Can’t take The Edge off it, or make you go away
Removing it was such a farce
Why can’t you just remove your head from up your arse
You think that you’re the Lord of Rock
While the world looks on and thinks that you’re a… fool

Bono, Bloody Bono
