Clannad

Clannad (Irish pronunciation: [kl̪ˠan̪ˠad̪ˠ]) are an Irish band formed in 1970 in Gweedore, County Donegal. Their music has been variously described as bordering on folk and folk rock, traditional Irish, Celtic and New Age, often incorporating elements of an even broader spectrum of smooth jazz and Gregorian chant. After twelve years of success in the folk music industry, they shot to international recognition in 1982 with the release of the "Theme from Harry's Game", becoming the most successful band in the Celtic music genre.

Back in my schooldays, acting the fool days
One and one and one is three
And the man said, Hey, come and cut yourself a piece of the big time
Armor-clad forces, riding Trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didn't want to be a part of the great debate on moonshine

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red

Sly man stumbles, twists and he tumbles
He always lands on his feet
And he sets his face towards the far horizon
Won't you come this way? Can't you go that way?
But his rhythm don't miss a beat
'Cause he's doing everything he can to keep surviving
Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red

So who wants a riot? People should be quiet
Don't we give them good TV?
You can learn to love your lifetime of distraction
Nothing on the inside, nothing on the outside
All the way from A to Z
I can live without that kind of satisfaction

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red

Stop, pay the price, they said to me
Take this advice, you're out of your head
I said, Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red
