lirik lagu delerium tremens – christy moore
i dreamt a dream the other night i couldn’t sleep a wink
the rats were tryin’ to count the sheep and i was off the drink
there were footsteps in the parlour and voices on the stairs
i was climbin’ up the walls and movin’ round the chairs.
i looked out from under the blanket up at the fireplace.
the pope and john f. kennedy were starin’ in me face.-
suddenly it dawned at me i was getting the old d.t.s
when the child o’ prague began to dance around the mantlepiece.
chorus
goodbye to the port and brandy, to the vodka and the stag,
to the schmidd-ck and the harpic, the bottled draught and keg.
as i sat lookin’ up the guinness ad i could never figure out
how your man stayed up on the surfboard after 14 pints of stout.
well i swore upon the bible i’d never touch a drop.
my heart was palpitatin’ i was sure ’twas going to stop,
thinkin’ i was dyin’ i gave my soul to god to keep.
a tenner to st. anthony to help me get some sleep.
i fell into an awful nightmare – got a dreadful shock.
when i dreamt there was no duty-free at the airport down in knock.
george seawright was sayin’ the rosary and spuc were on the pill.–
frank patterson was gargled and he singin’ spancil hill.
chorus
i dreamt that mr. haughey had recaptured crossmaglen
then garret got re-elected and gave it back again.
d-ck spring and roger cas-m-nt were on board the marita-ann
as she sailed into fenit they were singin’ banna strand.
i dreamt archbishop mcnamara was on spike island for 3 nights
havin’ been arrested for supportin’ traveller’s rights.
i dreamt that ruairi quinn was smokin’ marijuana in the dail
barry desmond handin’ frenchies out to scuts in fianna fail.
chorus
i dreamt of nell mccafferty and mary kenny too
the things that we got up to, but i’m not tellin’ you.
i dreamt i was in a jacuzzi along with alice glenn
’twas then i knew i’d never ever, ever drink again.
chorus
