lyrics
So come here I'll tell you how it started
For the sake of our dear departed
I was bored of doing whippets in Walkinstown
I thought the high was worth the comedown
I met Ringo down by the Grand Canal
He told me how he'd been clean now
He'd seen the lights, he'd reached new heights
I knew right then we'd be up all night
But at least I kicked the smack
You've got to me give that
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
That'll set you back sixteen hundred
Who cares you know it's public funded
We'll smoke that in two hours just you and me
An ounce might just as well be free
I got sent down when I punched a guard then
He broke my jaw I reckon just for fun
I've got just seventeen teeth left to spare
I can't afford to lose a single one
I've been in Cloverhill
Four years more than I haven't
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
For the sake of our dear departed
I was bored of doing whippets in Walkinstown
I thought the high was worth the comedown
I met Ringo down by the Grand Canal
He told me how he'd been clean now
He'd seen the lights, he'd reached new heights
I knew right then we'd be up all night
But at least I kicked the smack
You've got to me give that
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
That'll set you back sixteen hundred
Who cares you know it's public funded
We'll smoke that in two hours just you and me
An ounce might just as well be free
I got sent down when I punched a guard then
He broke my jaw I reckon just for fun
I've got just seventeen teeth left to spare
I can't afford to lose a single one
I've been in Cloverhill
Four years more than I haven't
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
We stayed up smoking rocks til after seven
You reminded me there's no tweaker heaven
Let's get another ounce down by the quays right now
Cos it's too late to flag a rickshaw down
