Town was wet so I sat in the car and I waited for the drizzle to ease
Jerry said he’d look to get me a job draining bog for the forestry
Took a knock when I choked on the slops and I shivered all the way to the pier
All the girls went to Australia and they never came back round here
I don’t want to go far
Just want a little bit of money
Saw a thing on the news really got me confused said the worlds getting warm
Well they’ve never been around these parts in the middle of a February storm
With the wet of the west and a hole in my chest and a drip in my eye
Forty years in the fog and the rain a bare little trickle of blue in the sky
I don’t want to go far
Just want a little bit of money
I don’t want to fail hard
I don’t want to swim in the big sea
I don’t want to go far
I don’t want to be too greedy
I just want to stay home
And I just want to see my baby
No I don’t want to go far
No time for tropical islands
Or sending postcards
Getting tan on my lovely white legs
No I don’t want to go far
Run away from the dreadlock holiday
No I just want to stay home
And I just want to see my baby
And I don’t want to go to Chelsea
I never liked that art in the Saatchi
Or walking round the Natural History
No I don’t want to go to Chelsea

Tapioca
Weave and plaid
Are you emerald
Or are you jade?
Will you pass?
Through Germany and France
Will you laugh?
Your way through Luxembourg
Tapioca
What’s your sign?
Is it Gemini the same as mine
You’re a pig, hog
Snuffle in the earth
I’m a big dog
Loving you to death
In the nighttime
Some would say we need some time
I would think that it’s ok
She would say that she don’t care
What life is there
Anyway, anyway
Tapioca
Neon beige
Pussy cat
On your jumper babe
And it
Sparkles
Help me through the night
You’re a sad girl
I never get it right alright
Tapioca
We saw you cry
Crystal tears
How they carbonated
Your eyes
On January the 4th
Realised
The pains of being pure in mind
In the nighttime
They would say we need some time
I would think a little more
She would say that she dont know
What life is for
Anymore, anymore
You murmur in your sleep
You sleeping through alarms
And myself just like a wet dog
As I tremble in your arms
And my cold sweaty palms
That bothered you for hours
Now cling to you like pollen
In a windy day for mountain flowers
Light
Moon gets in your eyes
Sounds of the Sagami
Monkey nuts and dragonflies
Fly forwards back to me
Try walking deep in thought
I really find it helps me
And I really thought an awful lot
So we wait
And try to keep ourselves alive
And hate
The longer days and shorter nights
And the couples fighting
And squirming and crying
And summer bleeding
And burning and dying
Days and weeks and oceans
To stew
And picture postcards
And smells
Of me and you
Tapioca has a friend in me
The greatest thing since 1973
Take me under, throw me overboard
To the mermaids on the ocean floor
Tapioca pink and turquoise blue
Make them shimmer with the things that you do
Foggy notions maybe they don’t know
Eternal happiness is all we’re asking for
That’s all we’re asking for
A little love you know
All we’re asking for
A little love

Daddy puff cigarillos
Mammy puff pasty
At night
Vinny puff anything
Carrols Red
Super King
Cutters Choice
And Silk Cut White
Mixed herbs
Sage and thyme
Mossy leaves and
Chamomile oil
I never wanted nothin’ more
Than being the biggest smokerer
In that sodden western isle
(I’M) SMOKING LIGHTS
SMOKING ALL DAY AND NIGHT
I roll my own
I roll my own
I roll my own
I’ll roll you one too baby
Orange juice
And nicotine
Never had a sniff of green
Nutmeg
Shite high, oh
Brown tooth
Yellow skin
Polo mints
And blowing rings
Into dreary
Drizzly sky
SMOKIN' LIGHTS etc
I ROLL MY OWN etc...
I look like my Da
You look like your Da, your Da
I have skins I have light what’s the reason of life what’s the reason of living at all at all?
I have wind in my hair and there’s not much out there have you got any place called home?

Cheap sweet wine
And I thought you were wine
Oh I can outdumb
Anyone
You on my mind
Almost all the time
Freckled little face
I’ve had my share of the life out there
Would you like to take a taste
Glum eyed boys
Consolation prize
Scattered around your door
More and more and more and more and more oh
Fluorescent light
Stamford Hill at night
Oh babes
You’re looking thin
Should we go away to the salty air
Get some colour on your skin
Should we order in a bag of white, a bottle and a pair of blinds? Would you like to go and
hide away in the middle of the countryside? Should we stay in bed til the cat needs fed, til
the plants all wither and die? Would you follow me to the inland sea, get away from the
constant line?
Would you hate me
Would you hate me
Would you hate me
If I made you cry?
Would you hate me
Would you hate me
Would you hate me
If I said goodbye?

Sleepy kisses
In the afternoon
Sleepy kisses
In my favourite room
Sleepy kisses
Wanna hold you tight
Sleepy kisses
Til the morning light
Eyes in sun an’ a
lips in lune
Where’s the fun
If you’re leaving so soon?
Pollen counts
Close the windows and doors
I like you more than I ever before
Sleepy kisses
In the salty air
Sleepy kisses
On your derrière
Sleepy kisses
Under cotton sheets
Sleepy kisses
Then a bite to eat my sweet
In a yawn
In a primitive suit
I like the chatter of
Your dangling tooth (or the two)
Watch me fawn
Watch me flatter and coo
I’m all shy
You’re all Rita and Sue
(and Bob too...)
Sleepy kisses
In the afternoon
Sleepy kisses
In my favourite room
Sleepy kisses
Tastes like paradise
Sleepy kisses
God you’re awful nice
So nice
Sleepy kisses
In the afternoon
Sleepy kisses
In my favourite room
Sleepy kisses
Wanna hold you tight
Sleepy kisses
Til the morning light
Sleepy kisses
In that salty air
Sleepy kisses
On your Derry air
Sleepy kisses
Under cotton sheets
Sleepy kisses
Then a bite eat my sweets
Heart
Oh What
I feel
I feel what
I feel
I feel love
I feel
I feel some thing new, oooh
I feel
I feel power
I feel
Eifel tower
I feel
I feel warm
I feel
I feel calm
I feel
Oooh
Oooh
Chu

Are we attached?
02:30
|

Are we attached?
Don’t you think that I’m your match?
Would you have a bubble bath
With me?
Are we entwined?
Like we used to be one time
I don’t mean to be annoying
Oh honestly
You’re so relaxed
And you’re having many chats
With lots of different lads
That aren’t me
Oh, you know, I....
I live in Ireland
And you...
You live in me;
Are we attached?
In the couple’s almanac
Would we be there on the charts
Me and you?
Are you inclined?
To consider yourself mine
For I think I have a lot to offer you
I really do
But I want some more
I’m a terrible chore
I’m a factory floor
For you
No I won’t take less
I’m a permanent press
I’m a gooey old mess for you
I live in Ireland
And you
You live in me
You know I...
I live in Ireland
And you...
You don’t believe
Are we attached are we entwined are we aligned do we combine
are we attached are you relaxed is that is that etc?

Dressed in brown
Keep the population down
Fall over your sweetness
Way under my frown
My hips don’t lie
See them dropping by my thighs
Apples and oranges
and onions don’t cry
I’m with you anywhere you want to go
(followed by something indecipherable, sorry)
