Good Friday Lyrics - Artist : David Keenan
The cock cried crow fetch your sleeping bag let's go
We are off to happy valley where the people are all sad Embrace the cold the angelus will call us home To the virgin Mary flats, there ain't no virgins around here Corrupt their game, it is true they call us flakes We bribed the fabian society with our stone baked cakes And our hot crossed buns we had laced with oxycontin George Bernard Shaw lies on his back chewing his jaw, man, he looks rotten Your voice is like wine won't you speak and let me drink I'll consume all of your woes and spew them in the Belfast sink I get withdrawal I cannot sing, somebody else speaks with my tongue Your ghostly hands that rings adorn are monkey bars from which I swing The crow cried cock on the boarding house floor Tell me of homeric epics and the toss pit wars Ah the flipping of the shilling the switching of the coins Man was baptised against his will in that river full of secrets You kicked the can, bring out your myriad-minded man For the dissipate the crowd with his painter's apron His jar of sand, butcher's block and shovel like hands Now let us walk to Tara naked and take back what's rightfully ours Your voice is like wine won't you speak and let me drink I'll consume all of your woes and spew them in your Belfast sink I get withdrawal I cannot sing, somebody else speaks with my tongue Your ghostly hands that rings adorn are monkey bars from which I swing Let's skip with a smile into a game of La Marelle Through a cloud of yellow chalk We'll leap from heaven straight through hell And in the morning before you know it you're back at the carnival again It's Good Friday and some young mother is dressing her favourite child |
