As I came home on Monday night, as drunk as drunk could be
I saw a horse outside the door, where my old horse should be,
So I said to me wife, me pretty little wife,
Oh won't you tell to me
Why is this horse outside the door, where my old horse should be?

Shirinovski - Paddy Goes To Holyhead[Songtekst]
There lives a man in Moscow
and Russia is his fate
he always prayed for power
for idealty and hate
his dreams are very simple
dreams of an iron fist
his name is Shirinovski
he is a bloody damned fascist
He's talking about freedom
talking about Russia's lost
but it means another war

Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by

Star Of The County Down
Near to Banbridge Town, in the County Down one morning last July
Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen and she smiled as sh epassed me by
Oh, she looked so neat from her two bare feet to the sheen of her nut-brown hair
Sure the coaxing elf, I´d to shake myself to
Take me disappearing through the morning Light

And when I reached I can`t take no rest

The Auld Triangle
Oh a hungry feelin' came o'er me stealin',
And the mice were qsueelin' in my prison cell,
And the ould triangle went jingle-jangle,
All along the banks of the Royal Canal.

As I lay there weepin' for my girl Sal,

The Band Played Waltzing Matilda
Now when I was ayoung man I carried me pack,
And I lived the free life of a rover,
From the Murrays Green Basin to the dusty outback,
I waltzed my Matilda all over,
Then in 1915 my country said, Son,
It´s time to stop rambling, there´s work to be done,
When first I left my native home the Blarney we were told
whole people in Australia they picked up tumps of gold
where gold-bars lay on ev'ry street and the buster's rights were free
hurrah said I me napper-lads oh that's the land for me
Oh with me swag upon me shoulder rifle in my hand

In a neat little town they call Belfast,
Apprenticed to trade I was bound,

Far away from me friends and relations,

The Ferryman
All the little boats are gone
From the breast of Anna Liffey
And the ferrymen are stranded on the quay
The Dublin docks are dying
And a way of life is gone
And Molly it was part of you and me
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You´ll kiss away the worrieBy a lonely prison wall
I heard a young girl calling
"Michael they are taking you away
For you stole Travellyn´s corn
so that the young might see the morn´
Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay"
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young man calling
"Nothing matters, Mary,

The Foggy Dew - Paddy Goes To Holyhead[Songtekst]
The Foggy Dew
´Twas down the glen one Easter morn
To a city fair rode I.
When Ireland´s line of marching men
In squadrons passed me by.
No pipe did hum, no battle drum
Did sound its dread tattoo
But the Angelus bell o´er the Liffey´s swell
Rang out in the foggy dew.
Right proudly Dance, danca, dance, around the hillside
Dance, danca, dance, so let the music play
Dance, danca, dance, around till midnight
On the Gipsies´ wedding day
once there was a wedding
On the 3r of December
Relatives from far and near
They came along that way
An old gipsy talked to them
And s

It's the freedom of a thousand doves

Wild Women - Michael Learns To Rock[Songtekst]
Can I act like an angel if I live like a jerk
Can I keep on disguising
Can I make believe that I don't deceive, no no no

They made me a winner
They made me a sinner
I don't know what to do
Dirty money in the left hand

Until the war is won
We will keep the faith between us
If we only try

And when I reach my hand to you
You just turn your face away
But even though the cold from your still beating heart

I'm on the floor
Counting one minute more
No one to break the silence
Staring into the night

I don't know what to say now
I don't know where to start
I don't know how to handle

In my search for freedom and peace of mind

We'll wait for our fate

Only by giving me your everything
With a love so true you took me 25 Minutes - Michael Learns To Rock[Songtekst]
After some time I've finally make up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine

The only place in town where I didn't search

Crying in the rain of falling bombs
Father he is young but deep and wise
You see the fighter inside his eyes

The evil sides of the world
How many hours and how many days
Love is just slipping away
How maChloroform Perfume - From Autumn To Ashes[Songtekst]
The end result of so many meetings
At late night dinners with no one eating
We sit in corners and sip burnt coffee
Count the tiles upon the ceiling
Skip this pretense and cut straight to dying
Don`t pick me to keep your eyes from crying
You said so much without even parting your lips
It`s
