about

Ears are Prickd details the tragic effects of low self-esteem and how dark humour is essential in order to cope with life.

lyrics

Freddie was a window cleaner studying philosophy on the side
Playing in a local band, his girlfriend was having their first child.
Freddie used for recreation till it took him in the night poor Freddie.

Davy worked in advertising though his heart dropped out long before he was left a house by a spinster auntie and very quickly blew it up.
He left the gas on during football, fell asleep and never rose, poor Davy, poor Dave.

It's funny what you hear when your ears are prickd
It's funny what you hear from the dying and the sick
It's funny what you hear when your ears are prickd
I better get my own shit sorted quick who knows.

Seamie sang a song for Ireland in the doorway of the Cobblestone
It failed to meet the expectations so he retired for the road
Headed low tucked into shoulders, can't be seen to sadly show poor Seamie. No shame.

I am on a magic wagon travelling to another town
Maybe there I'll hear more stories about some other unfortunate young men

Who knows when you're living in arrears
Who knows when you're living in between the next meal
Who knows when you're living in arrears
Who knows when you're living in between the next meal who knows

It's funny what you hear when your ears are prickd
It's funny what you hear from the dying and the sick
It's funny what you hear when your ears are prickd
I better get my own shit sorted quick who knows.
