The Wolfe Tones - The Teddy Bear's Head Lyrics

Lyrics The Teddy Bear's Head - The Wolfe Tones



Here′s up the rebels get back our teddy's head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
On the outskirts of Europe in Atlantic so dear
There′s a country called old Ireland that looks like a teddy bear
It's an island that's split in two with a border in her head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
So it′s here′s up the rebels get back our teddy's head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
Her face is o′er in Donegal her brains are in Belfast
Her arms outstretched in Galway for her friends that do go past
Her hair is on the north coast in Derry, Antrim, Down
I'm sure this head will be better off without the bloody crown
So it′s here's up the rebels get back our teddy′s head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
Her backbone's on the east coast from Dublin to Dundalk
Her legs in feet in Kerry they have shoes that never walk
Her backsides in Cork to Wexford her heart's in Midlands
We′re facing towards Americay with our to England
So it′s here's up the rebels get back our teddy′s head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
So listen proud Britannia to what I say to you
Would you like it if your head was owned by someone quite untrue
And they planted foreign fleas to mix in with your breed
Before another year had passed you'd never know your creed
So it′s here's up the rebels get back our teddy′s head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
On the outskirts of Europe in Atlantic so dear
There's a country called old Ireland that looks like a teddy bear
It's an island that′s split in two with a border in her head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
So it′s here's up the rebels get back our teddy′s head
Her face and tail are all her own but her brains are foreign led
Up the rebels!
