Song For Dan Treacy Lyrics - Congratulations - Mgmt

He spends his time or maybe half of his time 

Or part of the time wandering 

'Round the creeks and cobble stones 

Of hackney lanes 

With a tear in his eye 

As the children walk by, he's thinking of a song 

Then stops to paint a picture of a frown 

Walking around 

Dan Treacy's smile, leaves you trying 

To decide who's the victim, what's the crime? 

No rest for the mind 

That's seen it all before

And I don't know where he lives 

But he's a myth of a man 

And Texas Bob the cameraman 

Is off to fix his sit before the show 

Yeah, but where did he go? 

To know when your time's up 

You flip the glass and watch the hours quickening 

In the back of the station 

Fluorescent lights about to quit their flickering 

Well, he speaks his mind 

He says, "What is crime?" Dan Treacy's eyes 

Stop in the middle of the park 

When the underground is dark 

He's a poet, he's a lark 

Photos 

He starts thinking about a place that no one knows 

And when the creeks run dry, he stays frozen in time 

Strange lights in the sky, start blinking 

I can see the car outside but he's listening 

He's listening, he's listening 

And he's making up his mind 

He made his mind up 

To get things done and overcome 

He made his mind up 

Yeah, he's gonna let it go 

He made his mind up 

In the park and at the station 

He made his mind up 

Yeah, he's gonna get it done 

He made his mind up 

Yeah, he's gonna get it done 

He made his mind up 

Yeah, he's gonna let it go 

No matter the time 

When the creeps run by, oh, no 

He's making his mind up 

Yeah, he's gonna get it done 

Yeah, when the creeks run dry 

Yeah, he's gonna listen to his soul 

Yeah, when the creeps walk by 

"Come here, boy, look me in the eye" 

Bow to the heart, back to the beat of Dan Treacy
