The Wolfe Tones - The Helicopter Song (lyrics in description)

Its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy

Early one morning as the branchmen they were sleeping
A little helicopter flew across the sky
Down into the yard where some prisoners were walking
Get ready for inspection says the warder in the Joy

And its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy


Down in the yard through the pushing and the shoving
Three of the prisoners they climbed upon the bird
And up and away they went into the grey skies
I think that someone escaped says the warder in the Joy

And its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy


Search every hole search every nook and cranny
Let no man rest until these men are found,
For this cannot happen to a law and order government.
I think youll never find them says the warder in the joy

And its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy


Over in the Dail they were drinking gin and brandy
The Minister for Justice was soaking up the sun
when came this little message that some prisoners have escaping
I think its three of the Provos says the warder in the Joy

And its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy


And its up like a bird and its over the city
Three men are missing I heard the warder cry
Sure it must have been a bird that flew into the prison
Or one of these new Ministers says the warder in the joy
