Deathwatch

I was a happy boy living on the dole
When you came and ruined it all on me
I'd sit for hours all day in my good friend's home
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
We were so happy there, talk our lives away
Talking 'bout our hopes and all our dreams
Till you came round one day with your great big plan
And you tried to ruin me with your schemes
And your Mammy and your Daddy well they call you Mary
But they shoulda called you Deathwatch
Shoulda called you Deathwatch
Cause you nearly were the death of me
Lads told me you were no good I turned them away
Said that you just wanted things from me
Then you made me get a job and I understood
I was in too deep I'd not be free
And then I gave up drink cos you asked me too
I was shaving each day before long
Then you said we had to save for a mortgage soon
That was when the light began to dawn
Didn't even say goodbye just walked away
From the burderns you had put on me
Don't know why I even tried to be something I'm not
All I know's I wanted to be free
Now I'm a happy boy living on the dole
Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea
I'll find some other girl to have me as I am
You can take your twisted love to sea
