Easter Road - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

There’s a fight in the street and it’s spillin' on Easter Road

And the sirens are screamin' and the drunkards are ready to blow

And there’s a couple of kids who’ve heard about it all before

Beneath the yellow street light

It’s been brewin' all night

You-ou-ou

Now they’re rackin' ‘em up in the back of a Transit van

And the junkies are gettin’ their hands on whatever they can

And the pubs that we love, they’re all boarded up

And the seats in the park don’t swing anymore, oh no

Oh no

But there’s something, keeps pullin' me back

It’s in my blood stream, this is who I am

It is who I am

There’s a headline stand on the corner of Easter Road

About a football fan who was barely a man

And one day he never came home

So we all gathered ‘round at the heart of the town

Showin’ the world that they're never gonna drag us down

No they’re never gonna drag us down

And there’s something, keeps pullin' me back

It’s in my blood stream, this is who I am

It is who I am

Lights overhead, take me home

Comin' back to Easter Road

In the end and after all

I only want to see those lights

Overhead take me home

Comin' back to Easter Road

In the end and after all

I only want to see those lights

Ooh-ooh

There’s a fight in the street and it’s spillin' on Easter Road

And the sirens are screamin' and the drunkards are ready to blow
