AEROPLANES | THE ARTIST | |
An Irish boy of seventeen Made a promise to an English King To fly his planes to foreign lands And drop his bombs at his command And he's overseas flying an aeroplane, an aeroplane And he's overland flying an aeroplane, an aeroplane An Irish boy of seventeen Would risk his life for the flying machine Machine And he's overseas flying an aeroplane, an aeroplane And he's overland flying an aeroplane, an aeroplane An Irish Boy An English King |
I am nocturnal, the philosopher I've reached the level, that I deserve I've reached the level, where I work best I am the artist, I am depressed I have switched off and all I want is To kiss the roof of Heaven Kiss the roof of Heaven Just to confirm that this is Hell But society needs a man And the man needs desires Society breeds ambition So that man can acquire I've found my level I am the artist I have switched off And all I want is To kiss the roof of Heaven Kiss the roof of Heaven Just to confirm that this is Hell But society needs a man And the man needs success Society needs a man One that doesn't depress Society don't need nervoes Society don't need gooks It doesn't need articulation Nor the truth, nor the truth I've found my level I am the artist I just need the darkness For observation, It's my obsession To kiss the roof of Heaven Kiss the roof of Heaven Just to confirm that I exist But society needs a man And the man needs success Society needs a man One that doesn't depress Society don't need nervoes Society don't need gooks It doesn't need articulation Nor the truth, nor the truth |

DARK HILL | DESERT BOOTS | |
Racing down this dark hill It's a road I've never travelled It bends, twists and turns Like some mystery being unravelled My ears are numb, my lungs are full I'm tampering with gravity's pull Like a fallin' star never to be returned Upset by, what I just learned About bridges, and how they don't burn Racing down this dark hill And the road is so deceiving Like a roller coaster ride Not knowing where it's leading Hand's outstretched I draw my breath I curse the world to forget And I curse the day that we ever met Regretting the damage we've done And all because, a bridge won't turn Gravity pulls but it's your arms I feel Holdin' me back, racing down this dark hill The wind's in my ears but it's your voice I hear Callin' me, callin' me, so crystal clear Racin' down this dark hill And the road gets so uneven I'm trying to lose my way And I'm doin' it for a reason I had prayed I had hoped After all these years, I could cope After all these years, we are still confused Upset by, the damage we've done Haunted by, a bridge that won't burn it wouldn't turn Still confused Hands outstretched I draw my breath I curse the world to forget And I curse the day that we ever met Gravity pulls but it's your arms I feel Holdin' me back, racin' down this dark hill The wind's in my, ears but I still hear your voice Callin' me, callin' me, racing down this dark hill |
Desert Boots and duffle coats We hid our beer in cans of coke We'd drink them on a football pitch And dance around like lunatics Two grown ups who knew it all An Action Man and a Cindy Doll And every word we said that was true I must have been in love with you The Dandelion in the afternoon St. Anne's Park to stare at the moon We'd lie on the grass, soaked right through I must have been in love with you Doin' all the things we shouldn't do I must have been in love with you The Burrow beach on a winter's day I told you I was goin' away An' leaving you I hadn't planned But I really thought you'd understand The Burrow beach on a winter's day I told you I was goin' away To be a star in a famous band Eight years on in the Hinterland And all the things I'd said I'd do I must have been in love with you Desert boots and duffle coats Two grown ups who knew it all Let's hear it for, the Action Man and the Cindy Doll Who never lost their love at all |

DIVE THE DEEPEST | PLACEHOLDER | |
Last thing I wanted was someone like you To walk into my life with your attitude All I needed was a shoulder to lean on Net for someone to enter my war zone Just wanted to pass by you But your arms opened wide I came to you like a boat to a waterfall Totally capsized, When you dived, you dived the deepest I'm as vulnerable as you In other peoples war zones From the selfish things they'll do To survive Emerald eyes, lend me your sight So that I can see through their weakness Emerald eyes, lend me a hand So that I'll be strong not defeatist Emerald eyes, when it's time Both of us will rise from the deepest Emerald eyes, it won't be long 'till we reach it Just wanted to pass by you But your arms opened wide I came to you like a boat to a waterfall Totally capsized, When you dived, you dived the deepest I'm as vulnerable as you In other peoples war zones From the selfish things they'll do To survive Emerald eyes, lend me your sight So that I can see through their weakness Emerald eyes, lend me a hand So that I'll be strong not defeatist Emerald eyes, when it's time Both of us will rise from the deepest Emerald eyes, it won't be long 'till we reach it |

GALWAY BAY | GOD'S REVERB | |
It's Galway Bay, St. Patrick's day And the sky's a dirty grey Then my window screens a rainbow And the rainbow sings to me My storm is gone and I know at last Now what's it going be It's Galway Bay, St. Patrick's aay The reality's here to stay So I'm walking towards the seashore But the sea chore gets further away My storm is gone and I know at last Now what's it going be My storm is, gone and I know at last Now what's it going be Who'd take the soul Of a twenty-three year old That was left to the Atlantic Ocean And what would it do to the ones who've loved you Who have lived for your life with of devotion Your soul would sink down with ships from the past Buried in the silt or clinging to it's mast Would you lie in peace, would you lie content Leaving this world, not knowing what you meant It's Galway Bay, St. Patrick's day And the sky kisses the sea I am looking for the rainbow 'Cos it meant so much to me Who'd take the soul Of a twenty-three year old That was left to the Atlantic Ocean And what would it do to the ones who've loved you Who have lived for your life with of devotion Your soul would sink down with ships from the past It's Galway Bay St. Patrick's day And reality's far away I m looking at my rainbow 'Cos it's stretched across the bay |
My dearest, I've been flying with a bomb Running out of fuel and it won't be long Before I land, what will you do, what have you planned ? A secret has eaten it's way to the tip of my tongue What I got to say isn't meant to, it's not meant to hurt anyone So if by chance you find me, kneeling on the stairs Fixed to the Sacred Heart, listening to God's reverb And if by chance you find me, legless on the floor Just means my world is spinning and you're not in it Not anymore My dearest, I've been flying with a bomb Running out of fuel and it won't be long Before I land, what will you do, what have you planned ? A secret has eaten it's way to the tip of my tongue What I got to say isn't meant to, it's not meant to hurt anyone You reason, don't reason to me I've known all along what I wanted to be But believe me I was naive and you were deceived My dearest and nearest yet the furthest from the truth My dearest and nearest yet the furthest from the truth, truth Yes I am angry, Yes I'm scared There's no one in charge, I've not been prepared For this life, this Limbo where we stroll My dearest and nearest, yet the furthest from the truth My dearest and nearest, yet the furthest from the truth |

HANDLE ME | PLACEHOLDER | |
Somedays I wake with a hole in my head Suffering from shell shock, shrapnel in the bed There's terror on my face when you pull me so near I wrap my arms around you like a baby full at fear Had a vision of the future which suddenly disappeared You got to handle me, handle me When you've seen days, I'm high as a kite A soaring eagle in majestical flight There's joy on my face when you pull me so near I wrap my arms around you, I'm living without a care But when I descend from flying up there You got to Handle me, handle me, handle me When I won't let you see deep in my eyes A man that is failing, a man that's disguised His anger, jealousy, resentment and lies Be careful how you handle me, handle me And if you see me standing before you Staring into thin air, try to ignore it There's terror on my face as I push you away I want my arms around you but I just can't explain When that vision of the future is suddenly blown away You got to handle me, you got to handle me Handle me 'Cause somedays I wake with a hole in my head Suffering from shellshock, shrapnel in the bed |

I see a necklace, a burning tyre It's round a man and he's on fire A necklace, to incinerate Oh Jesus, My Lord I'm askin' Where art Thou? I see Korum, a biblical dawn It's In the lens and the record is on Oh Jesus, Oh My Lord, Oh where? Where is my Lord ? I'm asking, not doubting Reporting I'm not being biased A running man with a shopping bag They shoot his legs back to get the food back Get the food back I'm askin' my Lord Where art Thou? I smell the necklace, the burning tyre It burns on my mind, now I'm on fire Oh Jesus, Oh where Where is my Lord? I'm asking, not doubting |

SENIOR ROMANTICS | STANLEY'S MINUTES | |
In retrospect what they know now They were bound and gagged by a marriage vow They thought junior romantics playing a love game Meant junior romantics staying the same, staying the same But they're all caught up in self defence Bound and gagged by common sense Fearful of the consequence Of a loving experience He's a naked man, caught in her hailstone rain She's a travel sick guard, caught on his runaway train They wear it well those pitiful looks Those mayday eyes and the grappling hooks And everytime he reads her like a book She's counting the exits, the exits He maintains he's done his best But what she sees she's not impressed It's that ever growing lack of interest She's counting the exits, the exits Chorus He's a naked man, caught in her hailstone rain She's a travel sick guard, caught on his runaway train He's a fighter pilot, up against a hurricane When the senior romantics play the love game But they're all caught up in self defence Bound and gagged by common sense Fearful of the consequence Of a loving experience He's a naked man, caught in her hailstone rain She's a travel sick guard, caught on his runaway train |
Last seen on the steps of the Procathedral Pondering on his life his doings and his evil When remorse sets in, that guilty sin And all those sinister religious things Stanley It's raining on the steps of the Procathedral They're locking the gates throwing out the evil Chorus Undesirables, incurables The sinners losers unlovable boozers Chorus I And if by chance you find me legless on the floor Stanley died, a down and out in the Ivy Hostel Stanley died, a Guinness bottle either side either site Dark clouds overhead of the Procathedral And nightime coming down, down on the evil You reason, don't reason to me Unreliables, unsuitables The sinners, losers unlovable boozers Chorus 2 Stanley died, a down and out in the Ivy Hostel Repeat chorus Stanley died a Guinness bottle either side Stanley Thanks died, intelligent man but drunken pride Thanks be to God it wasn't suicide There's no ouch thing as suicide When you're handed life on a silver platter There's two ways you can go on the social ladder And if you can't find love or happiness on it Then take a page from Stanley's minutes Take a page from Stanley s minutes Repeat Chorus 2 |
