About Zombie

"Zombie" is a protest song by Irish alternative rock band the Cranberries, written by the band's lead singer Dolores O'Riordan about The Troubles in Northern Ireland. It was released on 19 September 1994 by Island Records as the lead single from their second studio album, No Need to Argue (1994), two weeks ahead of the album's release. Music critics have long recognized "Zombie" as "a masterpiece of alternative rock", as well as a grunge number uncharacteristic of the band's other work. .

Zombie Lyrics

[00:49.50] Another head hangs lowly
[00:54.12] Child is slowly taken
[01:00.82] And the violence caused such silence
[01:06.05] Who are we mistaken?
[01:10.92] But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
[01:16.76] In your head, in your head they are fighting
[01:22.40] With their tanks, and their bombs, and their bombs, and their guns
[01:28.49] In your head, in your head they are crying
[01:34.65] In your head, in your head
[01:39.88] Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
[01:45.89] What's in your head? In your head?
[01:51.55] Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh
[01:58.64] Du-du-du-du
[02:01.54] Du-du-du-du
[02:04.64] Du-du-du-du
[02:07.54] Du-du-du-du
[02:11.53]
[02:22.28] Another mother's breaking
[02:26.95] Heart is taking over
[02:33.51] When the violence causes silence
[02:38.47] We must be mistaken
[02:43.63] It's the same old theme, since 1916
[02:49.32] In your head, in your head they're still fighting
[02:54.94] With their tanks, and their bombs, and their bombs, and their guns
[03:00.76] In your head, in your head they are dying
[03:06.87] In your head, in your head
[03:12.29] Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
[03:17.98] What's in your head? In your head?
[03:23.52] Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh
[03:30.62] Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, eh-eh-oh, ra-ra!
[03:42.08]
