Fatima Mansions - North Atlantic Wind lyrics
He sits in the light of the carousel with his children running 'round his knees While the wind howls down through the fishing boat mast the lights sway and the barkers freeze Well, his clothes are ragged and his smile is bright and the world he's in is only his so let no fool come up and look at him and say, "How'd you get to be like this? Not even 30 yet and you're like this!" North Atlantic wind will warp our resting veins It will dissolve you finally and naked you'll die, under the black sky, lost and alone In the all-night party at the chemical plant, everybody's feeling grand The Irish peasants haven't had this much fun since their ancestors fled the land A man with a hammer smashes down a wall, and everybody shouts, "Hooray!" and the virgins get taken in the shower stalls where the cyanide comes up the drains Don't call an ambulance if you can't pay North Atlantic wind will warp our resting veins It'll put you back down in your place and take that arrogant look off your face North Atlantic wind will cut through bone and brain Oh, be glad that you can still feel pain because naked you'll die, under the black sky, lost and alone |
