Lyrics of They Can't Stop The Spring

The curtain has been raised
The wall no longer stands
And from Lisadell to Latvia
We're singing as one clan

The curtain has been raised
And Europe's all one stage
And the archipelagic icicles
Have melted like the cage

We don't need no party
Just a party band
A continental choir
Singing hand in hand

They might scare the blackbird
But they cannot stop him sing
They may steal the honey
But they'll never steal the sting
They may crush the flowers
Trample every living thing
But they can't stop the spring

They might scare the blackbird
But they cannot stop him sing
They may steal the honey
But they'll never steal the sting
They may crush the flowers
Trample every living thing
But they can't stop the spring

They might scare the blackbird
But they cannot stop him sing
They may steal the honey
But they'll never steal the sting
They may crush the flowers
Trample every living thing
But they can't stop the spring

2007-03-14 [Hedda]: Irish sounding ballad... <img:mood15-gif.gif>

2007-03-14 [Nevermore.]: woah i really dont like that...BUT its good they finally put somthing irish in it! (the irish tin whistle) they wont win...they have won to many times, they dont want it anyway, thats why they put in shite entrys lol

2007-03-14 [Hedda]: They don't want to win?!? Are you kidding me? Everyone wants to win! Winning is the only thing that is important! But they kind of blew their chances now.

2007-03-15 [Nevermore.]: lol no, they dont...it costs them too much money lol..but they dont say it publicly, but we all know it...it was even brought up in an eposide of Father ted! they put in crap entries so that they wont win, and wont loose money, but can say, "uck we tried"...i wouldnt lie to ya <img:cheshmak.gif>

2007-03-15 [Hedda]: That's just lies. The fact is that the music sucks and the Irish are inventing all sorts of conspiracy theories to cover up the fact that Irish music is yesterday's news.

2007-03-15 [Hedda]: If they want nicer comments, then send some that doesn't suck badly! <img:mood5-gif.gif>

Damn, now I listen to it again. The song could have been very good... But it wasn't.

2007-03-15 [Nevermore.]: lol! im being serious, if they wanted to win, they would put in a good entry...*pokes* dont argue..<img:zabuN-gif.gif> im not defending them, i dont like the country all that much..its expencive...

2007-03-15 [Hedda]: These wikis are about arguing!!! <img:zabuN-gif.gif>

Well... Seems we can't even agree on that.

2007-03-15 [Nevermore.]: theyre not..its about me winning! dont make me bite you!
perhaps you have to be irish to know what i mean...but i will admit..if they were trying this year..it WONT work..it is almost as bad as the uk last year

2007-03-15 [Hedda]: That's mean! Not even I am mean enough to compare something to the schoolgirl rapper.

It's way better than the French ballad from last year though. 

2007-03-15 [Nevermore.]: i cant remember the french ones. i dont know what the uk was thinking..they had way better acts up for it and they chose HIM?! ugh..it was horrid..i liked sweden last year though, they did good.

2007-03-15 [Hedda]: HIM are from Finland! They would have had a chance.

2007-03-15 [Nevermore.]: Him? as in..his infernal magisty? i cant stand that band, but even if i did, i dont think it would have worked..Russia tried that when they put T.A.T.U. in twoish years ago

2007-05-06 [Hedda]: This is a pretty good song after all, but it just keep on reminding me how much better an Irish ballad can be.

2007-05-06 [Nevermore.]: i really dont like it

2007-05-06 [Hedda]: I like if I get a free Guinness <img:dand-gif.gif>

Otherwise... Nah... Not good enough.

2007-05-06 [Nevermore.]: hahaha! my grand father is a guiness addict..i had my first taste when i was 3 months old lol.
