Lyrics

I live in this world
And today my world is an Irish pub
In a town that's not in Ireland
Today's Monday not many come around
Few people come around
The stereo plays something boring
Someones covering a famous song
They are saved by looks and auto-tune
A career that'll last from spring to June
That'll last from spring to June
Behind lit windows
Where no one can see
I have another cheer for me
Today's my 50th birthday / anniversary
Tomorrow is yet another workday
I'll make sure no one knows
how this evening plays out
In an hour or so I'll be
on the subway home
This place is not downright dirty
It looks just like it should
No beer in the world would lure us in
If this place looked like a Scandinavian canteen
like a Scandinavian canteen
On every table there's a little lamp
Mine is powered by an LED-bulb
It flickers, and sort of looks like a candle
At least if you're drunk enough to handle
the one looking from across the room the room
from across the room the room
Ref.
Once in a while a nice song plays
A new, or a really old one
Then we sit there and listen, ordering one more
before we decide it's time to stumble on home
decide to stumble on home
Behind lit windows
Where noone will tell
I figure I might as well
have a chat with the one at the door
I might be the one she's looking for
but it seems I am not
Someone swears a lot
It's gonna be a long walk
home
