Crash Test Dummies - Sick Bed of Cuchulainn текст песни

Mccormack and richard tauber are sitting by the bed

Theres a glass of punch below your feet and an angel at your head

Theres devils on each side of you with bottles in their hands

Gimme one more drop of poison and youll dream of foreign lands

When you pissed yourself in frankfurt and got syph down in cologne

And you heard the rattling death trains as you lay there all alone

Frank ryan brought you whiskey in a brothel in madrid

And you decked some fucking blackshirt who was screaming at all the yids

At the sick bed of cuchulainn well kneel and say a prayer

And the ghosts are rattling at the door and the devils in his chair

And in the euston tavern you said it was your show

But they wouldnt give you service so you kicked the windows out

They took you out into the street and kicked you in the brains

So you walked back in through the revolving door and did it all again

At the sick bed of cuchulainn well kneel and say a prayer

And the ghosts are rattling at the door and the devils in his chair

Do you remember that foul evening when you heard the banshees howl?

There were lazy drunken bastards singing billy and the bowl

They took you up to midnight mass and left you in the lurch

So you dropped a button in the pledge and spewed up in the church

Now youll sing a song of liberty with blacks and paks and jocks

And theyll take you from this dump youre in and stick you in a box

Then theyll take you to cloughprior and shove you in the ground

But youll stick your head back out and shout "well have another round"

At the sick bed of cuchulainn well kneel and say a prayer

And the ghosts are rattling at the door and the devils in his chair
