I stumbled across this this morning thanks to my brother (a big punk fan)… Appearently, there is a song on the MXPX album, “Teenage Politics” that bears some uncanny references to the Cranberries. The song is called “Delores”. Check out the album cover and lyrics…

“Delores”

My girl hates the IRA
it’s true she just a Fantasy
Don’t know her she don’t know me
We’d make the perfect memory
Nothing in this world could be better
than falling in love with her
she’d write me the most beautiful of songs

1, 2, 3, Go! Go! Go! Go!

“Hates the IRA”? “She’d write the most beautiful of songs”? Coincidence? Make your own decision…
