Very calming, Nu. Thank you.

Western Irish, like everything else across the Shannon, it's different!

You'd have no ghrá i do chroí for the weather now, grey sheets of pelting rain sloping in from the West. Best a distant memory for you is doigh liom.

But thanks for the kind words, I'm a poor enough poet God knows, I'm better at rhyme and doggerel!

doggerel, doggerel
has dogged me
all my life

But what's a life
without strife?

The dog can't move no more, surprised he made it till spring
His pain won't go away and the pills don't do a thing
You've known that old hound longer that you've known any of your friends
And no matter how you let him down he'd always take you back again
So it's one tall glass of whiskey, one last drink for old time's sake
The dog just lays in bed and watches every move you make
Wrap him in his blanket, hold him once more close to you
Lead him out behind the barn with a borrowed .22


Everything slips through these cold fingers
Like trying to hold water, trying to hold sand

Every morning I've got a new chance
I want to land the part of Eddie in The Stranger Dance
Cause he gets to swordfight the duke
He kidnaps the queen
And you think the score's set but you can't truly see
Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine
Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

Every morning I pull on them pants
Mmm but I don't get out so much since I acquired St. Vitus dance
I turn the news on a while
I practice my scene
You think things are straight but they're not what they seem
Til you know the two sides of Monsieur Valentine
In his coat and his boots and his blackheart machine
No, no one knows the two sides of Monsieur Valentine

Every morning I've got a new chance
I want to land the part of Eddie in The Stranger Dance
He makes love to the duke
He swordfights the queen
He steals the whole show in his last dying scene
No one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine
No, no one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine
No one sees the two sides of Monsieur Valentine
Mmm hmmm mmm hmm hmm hmm

The clouds started forming
It sucked him out the window

All she can remember, is it sounded like a train

And I hear that missing trucker ended up in Kansas
Or maybe it was Oz

Sad, I am.
You are all untouchable for life.

Snicker. I gotcha on camera.

5531. Ulgine Barrows - 11/18/2005 9:01:31 AM

I foresee terrible trouble~

5532. alistairconnor - 11/18/2005 10:33:34 AM

but I stay here just the same

I'm a fool

5533. Ulgine Barrows - 11/23/2005 5:21:01 AM

Reminds me of the time
I looked at my husband
And said
What's wrong with you
That you love me

And we laughed,
broken laughs,
the both of us

Every morning I've got a new chance

5535. Ulgine Barrows - 11/23/2005 9:10:33 AM

But you wouldn't give that
new chance to ~alistairconnor~
Try it
Fling it

Every morning I've got a new chance
Untouchable for life

Every morning I've got a new chance

Unsatiable

go know

Every morning I've got a new chance

this is not my beautiful house
this is not my beautiful wife

Art imitates life.

And it's your face I'm looking for on every street
