lyrics

“Rónan agus Áine”, cá bhfuil tú
Ronan and Aine, where are you?
You non-Irish wouldn’t understand
But we’ll bring our desperate messages to you
Like only a deflated population can
With the weight of Peig Sayers bearing down upon you
Like some ogling, bewhiskered whore
As we uniformed in threes and fours
And Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
He wouldn’t take a shower, they said

“Rónan agus Áine”, cá bhfuil tú
Ronan and Aine, where are you?
You young bucks, you hairy teenyboppers
You wouldn’t know your whippers from your snappers
Come back to me when your blue eyes have seen
The Wavin-pipe justice that mine eyes have seen
Through thurible smoke and Emerald wrapper
Through my Wizzer and Chips, my Beezer and Topper
Through the cracked pink paint on the change room walls
The tight goose flesh, the hairy eyeball and the cast-iron radiator
Where our uniforms hung in threes and fours
And Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
Ger Noone had his head shoved in the bed
He wouldn’t take a shower, they said
