Dún Laoghaire |
There are buried worlds within us |
Rainy nights as black as Guinness |
Apparitions lodged like splinters |
So with thoughts all smudged and beery |
Make my way down to Dún Laoghaire |
Peek through windows fogged and teary |
From the warmth inside |
And if you can’t learn to love it |
'Fraid you’re gonna have to shove it |
Stacked too high to rise above it |
So we’re kicking o’er the traces |
With two fingers to their faces |
And proceeding on the basis |
Of inalienable right |
And ain’t it obvious |
By now |
There ain’t no me and you |
Never was |
Don’t have to be a genius |
To work it out |
We’re all effect without a cause |
Watching Oz the great magician |
Eyes shut in the brace position |
Changed beyond all recognition |
And the radius of our footsteps |
Spans a world of shattered concepts |
Abandoned buildings loom like shipwrecks |
In the ebbing tide |
And ain’t it obvious |
By now |
There ain’t no me and you |
Never was |
Don’t have to be a genius |
To work it out |
We’re all effect without a cause |
Is it some ridiculous misplaced |
Sense of pride |
That keeps me hauling |
On the line |
Gonna step right out of this |
I just can’t abide… |
If I had a pound for |
Every time |
