[Verse 1]
E C#m B A
It stabbed me in the chest like the pimp prudent's knife
E C#m B A
Into poor wandering Beckett under a mother of pearl sky
At the back of the wall, I bawled, cursing all in reel and rhyme
E C#m B A
While feeling out of sorts like a roadsweeper dressed up to the nines
A
As the multicolored kite
A
Over shoulders taking flight
A
And the local matador
A
Gives two fingers to the girl next door
[Chorus]
E C#m B A
I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today
E C#m B A
Looking for the quiet life, working for Irish rail
E C#m B A Aadd4 C
In my fathers clothes with a blood nose, I sang isn't it so sweet
E C#m B A Aadd4 C
By the slot machine there's James Dean out cold beneath my feet
[Bridge]
A
The disciples from the street
A
All burst in through open doors
A
The creaking of the stairs and
A
The running down the stairs
Pure ecstacy
[Verse 2]
E C#m B A
The circus master smiles, pointing his finger at the mime
E C#m B A
I hear the distant call of a boy named Paul who was taken before his time
E C#m B A A
All the precious stones or the mongrels bone won't entice me, silly child
E C#m B A
You just run on home for your tea's gone cold I heard your mother cursed you blind
A
As the backdoor man feels wrong
A
For switching off when signing on
A
And the double-jointed thief
A
Wins an award
For pure indecency
[Chorus]
E C#m B A
I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today
E C#m B A
Looking for the quiet life, working for Irish rail
E C#m B A Aadd4 C
In my fathers clothes with a blood nose, I sang isn't it so sweet
E C#m B A Aadd4 C
By the slot machine there's James Dean out cold beneath my feet
[Bridge]
A
The disciples from the street
A
All burst in through open doors
A
The creaking of the stairs and
A
The running down the stairs
Pure ecstacy
