dunno - fairytail of moyross lyrics

rate me

It was Christmas Eve, bud

Up in gangland

A skanger said to me

"Won't see another one"

And then he walked away

As if t'was som'thin he knew

I followed, screaming,

"Eh, are y'on about me or you?"

Got on a lucky one

Inner Northside Dublin scum

Pessimistic peasants

Who expect nothing from me

But then the middle class

Started giving plenty sass

Said, "Bertie, what you at?

Good plumbers don't grow on trees."

We've got pills, we've got coke

We've got smack, we've got smoke

But if I have my way

We'll have scared, sober folk,

When you first took my hand

Back in Autumn this year

You promised me, "Tainiste, As one we'll strike fear!"

You were slimy

You were scary

Much better than Mary

As Fine Gael took up whinging we took to the floor

Kenny was grousing

'Bout affordable housing

We laughed coz who'd ever give a vote to that bore?

The boys in Tallaght, Swords and Southill

Were dying, true, no doubt

And we cried, "Tougher sentencing

Will sort ye out."

You're a fraud, Charlie's patsy

You're a weak fucking Nazi

Getting rid of the blacks

And the poor and the knacks

You're corrupt, you're a liar

Your egotism is dire

Happy Christmas, me arse

Though, please God, not our last

The boys in Rahoon and Gurranabraher

Are reducing their townlands to rubble

And we cried, "A few new guards

Will end this trouble!"

I could have had it all

Well, you're with Fianna Fàil,

Imagine the likes of me

Encumbered with being a PD!

I'll take you with me, babe

I'll drag you anywhere

We might be bad together

But there's fun in feeble strategy...

The boys in Moyross and Clon-dalk-in

Are shooting each other dead

But the sand's a great place for us

To rest the head.<br />
