ZOMBIE

ZOMBIE

Another head hangs lowly, child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken

But you see it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are cryin'

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie
In your head, what's in your head Zombie

Another mother's breaking heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
I'ts the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head they're still fightin'
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are dyin'

In your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie
In your head, what's in your head Zombie

HistoryTracs extra credit-click here to learn how to build a PowerPoint set to music

Tell the story of Irish history using PowerPoint and the Cranberries 1994 song “Zombie”,

Suggestions:

Listen to the song several times. Read the lyrics, posted below. Know your “story” well. Picture how you would start the show, and end the show.

Use pictures from appropriate websites and the handouts, which are placed electronically on the website. You should also use quotations from Irish nationalist leaders. Do not use more than 20 words a slide. You should refer to all 4 different eras of Irish history that we studied.

I want you to keep it somewhat simple -as far as having words appear on screen in sync with the music, it is very difficult to pull off with split second accuracy from one computer to another. So don’t worry about that.

Good luck! If you need help, or would like me to preview before handing in please see me after school.
