lyrics

“Girl from Galway”

A night’s bar crawl away
On an Irish pub floor I'll lay
GIRL FROM GALWAY came on a tourist visa
And decided to stay
She was new so fresh so foreign
And me so tired right-wing and boring
With her I found myself ignoring
My self control


Now Guinness is Good for You
Posters litter the walls of our loo
GIRL FROM GALWAY came to know me better
than I could ever do
Six months in I'm not sure I'm staying
She says, But now I find myself saying
New words, like naff and craic and wanker
Why I never took the time to thank her
I'll never know
[1st prog]
I'll never know

But I could turn you in so easily
and nobody would know!
And you could never come back,
it would be so easy.
Not so easy is forgetting you
or letting you go

I told her love was flawed
And how we could have
Shared a Catholic God
But GIRL FROM GALWAY came and went faster than my
junior year abroad
Six months on I don't feel much better
Though somewhat sobered up and whether
She moves back home or across the street
She still moving on, moving on…away from me
ba ba ba ba ba
