[00:23.000]I was an unmarried girl
[00:25.800]I'd just turned twenty-seven
[00:30.000]When they sent me to the sisters
[00:34.350]For the way men looked at me
[00:37.350]Branded as a jezebel
[00:41.800]I knew I was not bound for Heaven
[00:45.800]I'd be cast in shame
[00:47.850]Into the Magdalene laundries
[00:59.500]Most girls come here pregnant
[01:03.500]Some by their own fathers
[01:08.150]Bridget got that belly
[01:10.550]By her parish priest
[01:15.000]We're trying to get things white as snow
[01:17.680]All of us woe-begotten-daughters
[01:21.400]In the streaming stains
[01:23.850]Of the Magdalene laundries
[01:35.000]Prostitutes and destitutes
[01:39.000]And temptresses like me
[01:41.300]Fallen women
[01:44.350]Sentenced into dreamless drudgery ...
[01:50.770]Why do they call this heartless place
[01:54.300]Our Lady of Charity?
[01:57.630]Oh charity!
[02:07.050]These bloodless brides of Jesus
[02:10.000]If they had just once glimpsed their groom
[02:13.500]Then they'd know, and they'd drop the stones
[02:17.500]Concealed behind their rosaries
[02:21.100]They wilt the grass they walk upon
[02:25.800]They leech the light out of a room
[02:28.800]They'd like to drive us down the drain
[02:32.300]At the Magdalene laundries
[02:44.000]Peg O'Connell died today
[02:46.600]She was a cheeky girl, A flirt
[02:49.300]They just stuffed her in a hole!
[02:51.250]Surely to God you'd think at least some bells should ring!
[02:57.400]
[02:58.450]One day I'm going to die here too
[03:02.100]And they'll plant me in the dirt
[03:07.100](Like) Some lame bulb
[03:08.500]That never blooms come any spring
[03:13.500]How any spring
[03:16.400]Oh....
[03:32.700]Ah...
[03:41.050]Nobody any spring
[03:50.200]Not any spring
[03:56.000]
