Blows & Unkind Words |
Oh now come fellow traveller, bend an ear t’ward me |
Come cease all yer rabble & row |
All yer shrill empty laughter is slicin' right through me |
And there’s feck all so funny no never, no how |
Ye’d as well tell the Devil his work is complete |
We’ll sing ‘share the love' but we can’t share the streets |
It’s the kick in the arse it’s the kiss on the cheek |
It’s the blows & unkind words |
My conscience rings like a siller bell & I can waltz like a dervish my dear |
Two boots full o' gravel through your blazin' hell |
With a shit-smeared grin from ear to ear |
Some hearts are like lightning in a bottle, and others like a moth in a can |
Some hearts are a Dead Sea apple, a poison to God & man |
I’m the sweetest bag o' rats that you’ve ever seen |
I look like trouble & I walk like a king |
It’s my thing, why bawl when I can sing |
Of all the blows & unkind words? |
You get around gob draggin' on the ground like lifes gone pissin' in yer mince |
Were you bullied as a child? |
Abandoned to the wild? |
And been blamin' every fucker ever since? |
We’re all born blind but we’re born with a spine |
So get up & stop hatin' all the world |
Keep callin' out to me ‘cos its growin' hard to see |
Through all the blows & unkind words |
Oh get back to yer corners ye filthy wee savages |
No terror hast though for the brave |
Wi' yer four letter words all at three second intervals |
Two clicks away from a frosty old grave |
If ye’re spoilin' tae rumble then piss off to war |
And for all o' yer trouble get hee-feckin'-haw |
For we’re staunch, fit & proud and we’ll suffer no more |
O' yer blows & unkind words |
Let the putrid little shites while away their lonely nights |
Sayin' all they wouldn’t dare by light of day |
And if the church or the state can’t find a cure for all the hate |
Then I can’t find the need to vote or even pray |
Ding dang Daisy go ahead & call me crazy |
But this shootin' match could all be over soon |
And the big fat dame with the foreign sounding name |
Is backstage firin' up a tune |
Oh you’ve a penny, I’ve a pound, let’s get drunk & fuck around |
We’ll barricade the door against the world |
A kiss o' life before you leave, ‘cos its growin' hard to breathe |
Through all the blows & unkind words |
You’ve a penny, I’ve a pound, let’s get drunk & fuck around |
We’ll barricade the door against the world |
I can’t take another night watchin' grown men fight |
To music made for teenage girls |
I can’t take another night watchin' grown men fight |
To music made for teenage girls |
You’ve a penny, I’ve a pound, let’s get drunk & fuck around |
We’ll barricade the door against the world |
I can’t take another night watchin' grown men fight |
To music made for teenage girls |
To music made for teenage girls |
Oh! |
To music made for teenage girls |
