francis of assisi - mary coughlan lyrics
it’s strangely pleasant sitting in the church this evening
the more i like it when there’s no one else around
last rays of sunlight fading through the stain glass window
the fl!ckering shadows looming as large as twilight nears
there’s lots of hungry creatures prowling around the streets tonight
sacristians edgy hear him rattling with the keys
nothing must disturb the sleeping of the statues
i’m so glad i still have you for sanctuary
just like francis of assisi
you’re so kind to the animal in me
when you come home talking hard chaw
like you been down drinking with the butcher boys
i called around to see aunt margaret this morning
she had to have alsation arthur put away
the dog attacked a youngster on the side walk
now she’s up all night until the break of day
me i’m getting restless in the afternoons
i need to find a job, but what can i do
suppose i’ll wander out my summer days
i just don’t know where i’d find the likes of you
there’s lots of laughing couples wandering round the streets tonight
lights on the river make her like a gypsy queen
but empty buildings jagged on the skyline
keep bringing me back to that same old scene
just like francis of assisi
you’re so kind to the animal in me
but now you’re standing at the bedroom door
smelling of whiskey and the abattoir
and with a regal wave
of your calloused hand
you’re saying ‘all this is yours
if this hand you choose’
