Hey, I work from eight to five just to stay alive  I face that strife, that rat-race life  I’m running round in circles every day it’s all the same, yeah, yeah  I simply act a part, I'm trying to look smart, a man of work  You're just a jerk  Won't you take a look inside and you see: I don't give a damn, yeah, yeah    At home, at work at every place  I bow and scrape, I race the race  A modern slave, caught in his golden cave, ätsch bätsch  Now Fiddler's Green is a place I heard tell  Where the fishermen go if they don’t go to hell  Where the skies are all clear and the dolphins do play all day, yeah, yeah    No time to lose, I'm leaving tonight  No more will I be seen  No time to lose, don't flog a dead horse  Let’s go to Fiddler's Green    Burn the bridges, come along  Now I’m keen to  Burn the bridges, come along  Now I'm keen to  Help me now to sing this song  Burn the bridges, find my way to Fiddler's Green  Help me now to sing this song  Burn the bridges, find my way to Fiddler's Green    I stop to play it safe, rise from the grave  I pass the buck to lady luck I’m going on a journey and  Ring the curtain down, down down  Cause Fiddler's Green is a place I heard tell  Where the fishermen go if they don't go to hell  This rings a bell inside of me
