What is a god of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes do'nt match my jacket,
If it's not working why don't you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where your at,
What is a number without any time,
You can't get higher with nothing to climb,
Why have a body if you ain't got a mind,
What is a searcher with nothing to find,
Why is the traffic refusing to stop,
Why climb the ladder if you can't reach the top,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why
Where is the what if the what is in why,
What do you dream of when you sleep at night,
Wee how the blind man fills up with light,
What is a bird with nowhere to fly,
How can you leave and not say goodbye,
What is a hunter with nothing to find,
What is the goodness without the unkind,
When did the outfit fall out of fashion,
When did the lover run out of passion,
My reincarnation time a phoney creation rhyme,
With no destination mine my information's fine,
Why did the voice say don't step on the floor,
Why did the sign say so float through the door,
What is a god of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes don't match my jacket,
If it's not working why don't you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where you're at,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
How did the loser get to be rich,
What is a saleman with nothing to pitch,
When did the fool het to beWe did everything together from an
Early age
Smoked our first fags behind the
School hedge
You captained the minors, I played in goals
You could have played for Ireland
Or so we were told
We will always be
The best of friends
But I won't see
The likes of you again
Drainpipes and combats, sixteen
Hole docs
Played table –soccer beside the
Juke-box
Kathleen was smiling, you the
Call
But I shifted marie at the colgan
Hall
We will always be....
Leeds united lost the FA cup final in 1973 and Alan Clarke was pulled down in the box, de deserved a penalty, we hitched to the letterkenny folk festival in the rain , got a lift back home in the link-box of a massey 188
Now I see you at weddings with
Shiny new shoes
Small talk of houses, the d.i.y. blues
Hasn't been mentioned, I'd like to
Say I wish I had seen you on you
Wedding day
We will always be...
