Like a Princess stuck in a factory 
There's nothin' here no for me 
Like a warted toad on a highway road 
The road seems never ending 
That's what appeals, whenever I feel 
Restless, solitary, anxiety 
Just give me that road, when the world 
Turns cold, and a nice hot glass of whiskey 
Well, it's blank above my thoughts and 
It's blank below my words 
Get me drunk and then I'm yours 

So give me two pints o' stout, two pints o' stout 
One so I don't think no more, and one to face 
What I've in store 
Two pints o' stout, two pints o' stout 
Well, my dear you have no money, so you can turn 
And walk right out 
Have you ever thought we might have sought in all 
Our years together, to part now while there's 
Still a smile and face the lonely weather 
Well, what's the worth of this wretched 
Earth, but traveling to new places 
Does the one you like seem a chord to strike 
Does appealing describe his faces 
No, I'm not content, not with myself 
Not my body or my mind 

It's freezing on O'Connell Street and I'm 
Talking to a hooker 
Well, she might be a cop, but either way I 
Ain't no better 
So it's rounds on me, one chance you see, 
Because I have the money 
When there's no more booze 
Then I'll go home and deal with my own thinking 
Like a dream that tortures me 
Each night is the peace 
I've known with you
