Verse 1 I was born in the heart of Dublin
To a holy book full of rules Made get on our knees every Sunday with the other fools We were warped by the Christian Brothers In the cell blocks at our schools
Get a handprint on your skin Before you break their rules Go hit me now That I'm twice your size
Brushed off the accusations And bowed before your lies Chorus 1 This is the city that raised me With the religion they gave me
Now I'm old enough to know my own mind And it was leaving that saved me I seen so much that has changed me
Just break with your past Feed your own mind This Irish son has moved with the times Verse 2 Weddings deaths or baptizing children That's my debt paid to the church I don't need that kind of salvation When I get hurt Don't fill my head with sermons
And force me to believe Chorus 2 This is the city that raised me With the religion they gave me
Now I'm old enough to know my own mind And it was leaving that saved me
I seen so much that has changed me Just break with your past Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times
Feed your own mind Verse3 Our father who art in heaven Come down here and make your presence known We can't do it on our own The lunatics let run the asylum How can we find peace inside your home When you can't trust your own Chorus 3 This is the city that raised me With the religion they gave me Now I'm old enough to know my own mind
But it was leaving that saved me I've seen so much that has changed me
So just break with your past Feed your own mind Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times Cos' this Irish son has moved with the times.
