《Suffocate》歌词

[00:00:00] Suffocate - Christy Moore

[00:00:16] Noel Brazil Paddy maintains we're all yellow inside

[00:00:19] Gun smoke got him and no mistake

[00:00:22] Sez he wants his car on the road

[00:00:25] He can't even locate the brakes

[00:00:28] He'd give his kingdom for a drink he would

[00:00:32] He'd sell his mother like he sold his blood

[00:00:36] Waiting for dole satisfies him

[00:00:39] Paddy didn't even learn how to swim

[00:00:42] But you go crazy if you think about it

[00:00:46] You don't think about it

[00:00:49] You suffocate

[00:01:03] Backs against the wall and let the building fall

[00:01:10] It may not be the perfect life but it's better than none at all

[00:01:29] 18 beats 21 you bet it's all just a gag john no sweat

[00:01:36] The old man says he still needs a hand and

[00:01:39] The neighbours only ever want cigarettes

[00:01:43] Drinks in the evening everybody's emigrating

[00:01:49] Or planning for it any way oh it's all the same old thing

[00:01:56] But you go crazy if you think about it

[00:02:00] You don't think about it

[00:02:03] You suffocate

[00:02:17] Backs against the wall and let the building fall

[00:02:24] It may not be the perfect life but

[00:02:27] It's better than none at all

[00:02:43] Come out of your Celtic twilight kids

[00:02:47] Join the bums down here by the bank

[00:02:50] We're all having a rare aul time

[00:02:53] Put another drop of the juice in the tank

[00:02:57] Rise there Paddy rise forget your stupid pride

[00:03:03] Oh the state of us what the hell is happening

[00:03:10] It's a hard life when grown men can't afford

[00:03:14] The price of a packet of ten

[00:03:17] But you go crazy if you think about it

[00:03:21] You don't think about it

[00:03:24] You suffocate

[00:03:38] Backs against the wall and let the building fall

[00:03:45] It may not be the perfect life but it's better than none at all
