Rain Street |
The church bell rings |
An old drunk sings |
A young girl hocks her wedding ring |
Down on Rain Street |
Down the alley the icewagon flew |
Picked up a stiff that was turning blue |
The local kids were sniffin' glue |
Not much else for a kid to do |
Down Rain Street |
Father McGreer buys an ice cold beer |
And a short for Father Loyola |
Father Joe’s got the clap again |
He’s drinking Coca-Cola |
Down on Rain Street |
Bless me Father I have sinned |
I got pissed and I got pinned |
And God can’t help the state I’m in |
Down on Rain Street |
There’s a Tesco on the sacred ground |
Where I pulled her knickers down |
While Judas took his measly price |
And St Anthony gazed in awe at Christ |
Down on Rain Street |
I gave my love a goodnight kiss |
I tried to take a late night piss |
But the toiled moved so again I missed |
Down Rain Street |
I sat on the floor and watched TV |
Thanking Christ for the BBC |
A stupid fucking place to be |
Down Rain Street |
I took my Eileen by the hand |
Walk with me was her command |
I dreamt we were walking on the strand |
Down Rain Street |
That night Rain Street went on for miles |
That night on Rain Street somebody smiled |
