Féinmharfóir Rac ’Ról / Rock 'N Roll Suicide
Gal tógtha ag an am, cuirtear í id’ bhéal,
Ag tarrac ar do mhéar, is ansin méar eile, is ansin an ghal
An falla ag glaoch ar fhalla, moillíonn sé, an chuimhne mall,
Óhó ó, féinmharfóir rac ’n ról thú
Róshean lena chailliúint, ró-óg le roghnú
Is feitheamh fada an chloig ar an amhrán
Siúlann tú thar chaife, ach ní íosfá toisc tú bheith róshean
Ó ó go deo, féinmharfóir rac ’n ról thú
Drannann coscáin Chev, i ndiaidh do mhullaigh trasna an róid
Abhaile leat ansin, an ghrian ina rós
Ná lig don ghrian isteach id’ scáil
An flóta bainne i do mheon
Tá tú nádúrtha, an croí ionat ag feo
Ó, a ghrá! Níl tú leat féin
Ag faire ort féin, ach ní mar is cóir
Is tá do cheann curth’ in aimhréidh
Dá bhféadfainn tú a chasadh im threo
Ó, a ghrá! Níl tú leat féin
Is cuma cé nó cad a bhís
Is cuma cad a chonaicís
Gach aon scian isteach i d’inchinn á sá
Is eol dom é, cabhródsa leat led’ chrá
Níl tú leat féin
Bíodh leathar againn, ní bheidh tú leat féin
Fíor-chraiceann againn, ní bheidh tú leat féin
Tabhair dom do lámh’, tá tú go hiontach
Tabhair dom do lámh’, tá tú go hiontach
Ó tabhair dom do lámh’.
Rock 'N Roll Suicide
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall to wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Ohhh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide
You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow
Don't let the milk float ride your mind
You're so natural, religiously unkind
Oh no love! You're not alone
You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
You got your head all tangled up
But if I could only make you care
Oh no love! You're not alone
No matter what or who you've been
No matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone
Just turn on with me and you're not alone
Let's turn on with me and you're not alone
Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful
Oh gimme your hands
