Their song "Tessie" is unbelievably obnoxious. This is coming from a big Sox fan, too.

It's a rewrite of an old broadway song... most of their music is a LOT better.

That said, I think "Tessie" is fun.

SUNSHINE HIGHWAY
(Written by Dropkick Murphys)

Yeah, me and my girl we're acting up again all right
She ain't much of a looker, she can handle her Paraldehyde
You were up all night at the Captain's Table drinking Tango & gin by the old piano
Playing cards and smoking cigars 'til the sun came up
Or was it going down for the night?

CHORUS:
Take another ride on the sunshine highway
Take another ride try to turn it around
Take another ride down the sunshine highway
Take another ride try to turn it around tonight

Drop me off, sign me in, clean me up and let me out
Man that nurse is a bitch, this sucks, she says my jug ain't allowed
I've had my share of Mt. Pleasant messiahs wearing slippers & robes, trying to bum my smokes
I'm gonna Thorazine shuffle straight out that door
Head to the farm and find me a cure

CHORUS

Tonight, yeah yeah yeah
I’m gonna make it right

CHORUS

Cause I’m gonna be the one
To take another ride, take another ride

THE BURDEN
(Written by Dropkick Murphys)

He came from nothing he tried 'em all
Ya' gotta live low before you see them fall
Always a loser he lost his shine
They had no idea what kept the beast alive

CHORUS:
But Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said he was broke and never coming back
But Frankie's gonna be alright

He swore to show them outlast them all
And someday they would see him standing tall
He'd never give in no not back down
I hope they never give up on his sound

CHORUS:
'Cause Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said he was old and he couldn't hold a tune
But I think he's gonna be alright

'Cause Frankie's gonna be alright
Yeah Frankie's gonna be alright
They said they'd be placing roses on his grave
But I think he's gonna be alright

Frankie don’t give up on yourself you heard the voice inside
Frankie don’t give up on yourself only you can save your life
Frankie don’t give up on yourself you heard the voice inside
Frankie don’t give up on yourself only you can save your life

Came from nothing he tried 'em all
Ya' gotta live low before you see them fall
Always a loser he lost his shine
They had no idea what kept the beast alive

CHORUS

They said they'd be placing roses on his grave
But Frankie’s gonna be alright

Of course you don't want another lovely supersexybitchinpunkass cool DKM shirt.

Dear Dropkick Murphys,

I demand an apology. I just purchased your new album, 'The Warrior's Code', and listened to it for the first time. I now cannot sit down comfortably because of the large bruises covering my bottom from you kicking my azz 13 times in a row (14 if you count the bonus kick). I also would like to know what kind of devious secret messages you put in your songs that seem to make me want to stand up and gladly pound my fist in the air along to every song, even while I'm having my bottom kicked in a major way. Then you put a song like 'The Green Fields of France' on your cd just to give me one of the hardest kicks in the pants ever, just because it is the most beautiful song of yours that I have ever heard. This is just unacceptable behavior, I will accept nothing less than a completely heart-felt apology.

Thank you,

~Bruised Bottomed Boy

DiGi · 06-21-2005, 08:43 PM

sounds like i need to go to the CD shop tomorrow and finally get this album.

I'm Ready · 06-21-2005, 10:42 PM

ahhhh Tessie

must be the worst song iv ever heard

i cant believe its on mvp 2005s soundtrack

UnforgettableLemon · 06-23-2005, 08:12 PM

I love Tessie

This is still easily my favorite album this year.

DiGi · 06-29-2005, 07:42 PM

My copy of this album final arrived today. After the first listen I am going to have to go out on a limb and say song 4, Walking Dead rocks.

UnforgettableLemon · 06-30-2005, 03:22 PM

One of my least favorite tracks on the album... but it's still very good.

Right now I'm digging Citizen CIA a lot, just because it feels like such an old school DKM song.

Nothing can touch Green Fields of France, though.

It's a fun song. So what if the lyrics are crap and grammatically puzzling and it's fairly generic by the band's standards... it's not supposed to be a masterpiece composition... just a stadium singalong.

I know... I'm a

IWasBored · 07-01-2005, 03:59 PM

tessie was fun, and then i burnt out on it. i don't want to hear it anymore. whatever, i'll live, i know i'll probably be hearing it at every dkm show i go to in the future until they get sick of playing it or it's determined that it brings bad luck now, because i live in mass and i can't see them taking it out of the setlist, even though most people in this state seem to have overdossed. i don't want to hear "walk away", and there's no "walk away" on the warrior's code. man, i fucking love this album.

the walking dead is one of my favorites.

i think the last letter home is my #1 favorite.

citizen CIA rocks, i'm still not sure whether i like it better the way it is now or when it was called "you're dead". but it's got the same sort of feel as "on the attack" or "john law". so therefore it rules.

the green fields of france is beautiful. i'm thinking that this is not so much an opinion, but a fact.

sunshine highway = excellent lead single. i only wish i could watch the video on my slow-ass computer

oh, i'd definetly put the title track in as one of my favorites, too.

did i mention that i still think wicked sensitive crew is hilarious? yeah, it is funny.

and the version of the auld triangle

captain kelly's kitchen.

hey, take it and run ain't bad (although it's probably my least favorite track on the album.

what am i forgetting? your spirit's alive is a damn good tribute to a friend.

and that brings us to the burden. love it.

yes, i neglected to mention "i'm shipping up to boston" on purpose.
