In the school rooms
Coloured in the brightest of paints...
They pushed spikes into my ears
So the last words I heard were theirs...
Maybe it was bopeep that killed her sheep
And maybe there’s a cannibal that looks after...
I have spent too much of myself
Lamenting the passing of angels...
The fire started to flicker and fade
In the dark and stormy wood...
Rebel, rebel broken and dishevelled
The rolling stone reduced to a pebble...
I saw you as soon as I arrived
sitting across the room...
Man is powerful and man is ultratough
Man is muscular, vascular and buff...
My heart shattered into a hundred different pieces
Tattered strips lie trodden on the floor...
Don’t you hither about love girl
Don’t you worry about the craic...
One night when all dreams evaded
Beneath a starless sky...
You can fall asleep on my knees
And I’ll still think your brave...
