Laganside Blues
Around the ground, trying to live an illusion
Making lots of sound but still in confusion
This body's working no more, knowing that it doesn't pay
Feigning normality & throwing every breath away
No minds so blind as those who will not see
You'll look at me man, the same way I'm looking at you - respectfully (whispered)
Trying hard not to succumb to the feeling coming over me
The kind of madness that'll rock you from your head to your shoes
I've got the Laganside Blues
You're not controlling me & I can tell you that you never will
No authority - independance is a bitter pill
Got the bruises from the cruises, from Rocky Point to The Waterfront
Faith has carried me through, I feel it in my holy water font
No pranks, no thanks - if you thought you'd run my life for me
Gonna bank on the only thing I know how to do ... yeah
Trying hard not to succumb to the feeling coming over me
The kind of madness that'll rock you from your head to your shoes
I've got the Laganside Blues
The Laganside blues
I've got the Laganside Blues.
