Waves

Waterwheel

This water-wheel keeps turning round. I must have told it a thousands times. There is no point in turning round. I'm on my own. Water-wheel.. . This water-wheel who laughs at me.

Nice And Nasty

Everytime I see this guy. Hangin' around or passing by. Think he's got no money. Is he with somebody?. He looks nice. Oh! Baby think twice!. There we go again.

Water

I don't mind eternity. Now I've seen you alright. I can face forever. I'm sick of the light. And the lyin' and the cheatin'. I'm a fool and I'm bleedin'.

Watchin' The Tv News

I don't read those fancy newspapers. I don't care for the print on my fingers. I can't take that slanted press. An' you know how the smell of the paper lingers..

Waiting For The Garda

A face that haunts me smilin' down. A broken doll with eyes so wild. O'Connell Bridge you're fallin' down. And hangin' on a ragged child. Amid the to and fro.

Wait A Minute You Fool

Well you push, and you shove, you think it's all one way. And you act like you thought the world would end today. I've got to tell you, I've got to spell it out for you.

User Friendly

Our Tara's what people today would call 'user friendly'. She dunno when to say "no". Her boyfriend, Rupert, 's in insurance. And thinks Ireland should be towed out into the Atlantic.

Up In The World

You've come up in the world. And it's all to your credit. You made somethin' of your life like you always said you would. But what ever happened to. The girl I used to know.

Unmarried Mother

Sitting in the waiting room. Of the Department of Social Security. Waiting for her name to be called out. So that she may secure their charity.. . She never thought that love.

Twenty Minutes

I wonder what we'll be doin' and. Where we might be. When they hit the button and. All hell is set free.. . Will the kids be in school?. Will you be on your own?.

Turbo

Have you got a turbo wrist watch?. Got a turbo vacuum?. Have you got a turbo washing machine?. An' a turbo car?. When you ask 'em what it means. They look blank and say "it's the latest thing"..

Trousers

This is a story about a pair or trousers. It deals with a lack of a sense of humour. Or rather a lack of imagination . .. . I would like to know, where you put my trousers.

Trespass

Love it seems isn't all that it's made out to be. As I found out to my dismay. I feel this way inclined. For love, it trespass on my time.. . I was so taken in by all the promises she made.

Tomorrow Night

Tomorrow night, everythin' 'll be alright. Tomorrow night, I'm gonna treat you right and. Love you so, like I should 'a' done long ago and. Hold you close, like I would 'a' done if you'd let me know..

Today In Parliament

Today in parliament. You' got the honourable this. And the honourable that. Nothin' so eloquent. As a little bit of mis-. Understanding and a lot of chat.

To An Air Hostess

The engines roared, the aeroplane soared. And I waited with baited breath for the worst. But everything connected, there was nothing unexpected. Until she appeared looking calm and collected..

Time, The Magician

A sweet occasion such as this. Another chance to reminisce. And though together we have grown. It's magical how time has flown.. . Remember at the outset.

This Was Our Love

This was our love for the very first time. This was our love for the very first time. You were dancing, I was singing. Well it really wasn't my kind of place.

This Is The Stuff (stuck In The Lift)

Well I've been trying forever just to catch your eye. But fate or luck or whatever wasn't on my side.. . Wasting my time. Getting no sign. Then we got stuck in the lift.
