Can't Say That
Imagine being frightened you might offend and it driving you around the bend
When you ain't got a thing against anyone my friend
Well you can't say this and you can't say that forget the banter forget the craic
But once its gone its hard to get back
And though they've never seen the world through another's eyes
They jump straight on the wagon in search of fake headlines
And though they've never made a single step in your shoes
They somehow feel that they can influence the words you use
Imagine having to apologise to keyboard warriors in disguise who seek to find intent that's not there
They'd be responsible for nothing and offended by everything
Nothing in common but the air that you breathe in your sharp wit local grit lost for all time
And though they've never seen the world through another's eyes
They jump straight on the wagon in search of fake headlines
And though they've never made a single step in your shoes
They somehow feel that they can choose the words you use
And if you can't say this and you can't say that forget the banter forget the craic
But once its gone its hard to get back
When you ain't got a thing against anyone my friend
Well you can't say this and you can't say that forget the banter forget the craic
But once its gone its hard to get back
And though they've never seen the world through another's eyes
They jump straight on the wagon in search of fake headlines
And though they've never made a single step in your shoes
They somehow feel that they can influence the words you use
Imagine having to apologise to keyboard warriors in disguise who seek to find intent that's not there
They'd be responsible for nothing and offended by everything
Nothing in common but the air that you breathe in your sharp wit local grit lost for all time
And though they've never seen the world through another's eyes
They jump straight on the wagon in search of fake headlines
And though they've never made a single step in your shoes
They somehow feel that they can choose the words you use
And if you can't say this and you can't say that forget the banter forget the craic
But once its gone its hard to get back
