《The Sick Bed Of Cuchulainn》歌词

[00:00:01] The Sick Bed Of Cuchulainn - The Pogues

[00:00:13] McCormack and Richard

[00:00:14] Tauber are singing by the bed

[00:00:18] There's a glass of punch

[00:00:20] Below your feet

[00:00:21] And an angel at your head

[00:00:24] There's devils on each

[00:00:25] Side of you with bottles in their hands

[00:00:30] You need one more drop of poison

[00:00:31] And you'll dream of foreign lands

[00:00:38] When you pissed yourself in Frankfurt

[00:00:39] And got syph down in Cologne

[00:00:40] And you heard the rattling death

[00:00:42] Trains as you lay there all alone

[00:00:44] Frank Ryan brought you whiskey

[00:00:45] In a brothel in Madrid

[00:00:48] And you decked some f**king

[00:00:49] Blackshirt who was cursing all the Yids

[00:00:51] At the sick bed of Cuchulainn

[00:00:53] We'll kneel and say a prayer

[00:00:54] And the ghosts are rattling

[00:00:55] At the door and the devil's in the chair

[00:01:05] And in the Euston Tavern

[00:01:06] You screamed it was your shout

[00:01:08] But they wouldn't give you service

[00:01:10] So you kicked the windows out

[00:01:11] They took you out into the street

[00:01:13] And kicked you in the brains

[00:01:15] So you walked back in through a bolted

[00:01:16] Door and did it all again

[00:01:18] At the sick bed of Cuchulainn

[00:01:20] We'll kneel and say a prayer

[00:01:22] And the ghosts are rattling at the door

[00:01:24] And the devil's in the chair

[00:01:46] You remember that foul evening

[00:01:49] When you heard the banshees howl

[00:01:52] There was lazy drunken bastards

[00:01:54] Singing Billy is in the bowl

[00:01:58] They took you up to midnight mass

[00:02:00] And left you in the lurch

[00:02:03] So you dropped a button in the plate

[00:02:06] And spewed up in the church

[00:02:10] Now you'll sing a song of liberty

[00:02:12] For blacks and paks and jocks

[00:02:13] And they'll take you from this dump

[00:02:15] You're in and stick you in a box

[00:02:17] Then they'll take you to Cloughprior

[00:02:19] And shove you in the ground

[00:02:20] But you'll stick your head back out

[00:02:22] And shout we'll have another round

[00:02:24] At the graveside of Cuchulainn

[00:02:26] We'll kneel around and pray

[00:02:27] And God is in His heaven

[00:02:29] And Billy's down by the bay
