NEW SONG ABOUT SINEAD

(Handed by Roman Szendrey)

There seems to be a new songs out about Sinéad written by Kris Kristofferson. It's been told that it's written to the tune of Bob Dylan's "the times they are a-changing". interesting lyrics:

SISTER SINEAD (by Kris Kristofferson)

I'm singing this song for my sister Sinéad
Concerning the god-awful mess that she made
When she told 'em
her truth just as hard as she could
Her message, profoundly, was misunderstood
There's humans entrusted with guarding our gold
Humans in charge of the saving of souls
Humans responded all over the world
Condemning that bald-headed brave little girl
And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't
But so was Picasso and so were the Saints
She's never been partial to shackles or chains
She's too old for breakin' and too young to change
It's asking for trouble to stick out your neck
In terms of a target, a big silhouette
And some candles flicker and some candles fade
And some burn as true as my sister Sinéad
Maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't
But so was Picasso and so were the Saints
She's never been partial to shackles or chains
She's too old for breakin' and too young to change.
