lirik lagu john spillane - the madwoman of cork

[intro]
today is the feast day of saint anne
pray for me
i am the madwoman of cork

[verse 1]
yesterday
in castle street
i saw two goblins at my feet
i saw a horse without a head
carrying the dead
to the graveyard
near turner’s cross

[refrain]
i am the madwoman of cork
no one talks to me

[verse 2]
when i walk in the rain
children throw stones at me
old men persecute me
women close their doors
when i die
believe me
they’ll set me on fire
[refrain]
i am thе madwoman of cork
i have no sense

[verse 3]
somеtimes
with an eagle in my brain
i can see a train
crashing at the station
if i told people that
they’d choke me
then where would i be?

[refrain]
i am the madwoman of cork
the people hate me

[verse 4]
when canon murphy died
i wept on his grave
that was twenty~five years ago
when i saw him just now
in dunbar street
he had clay in his t~~th
he blest me
[refrain]
i am the madwoman of cork
the clergy pity me

[verse 5]
i see death
in the branches of a tree
birth in the feathers of a bird
to see a child with one eye
or a woman buried in ice
is the worst thing
and cannot be imagined

[refrain]
i am the madwoman of cork
my mind fills me

[verse 6]
i should like to be young
to dress up in silk
and have nine children
i would like to have red lips
but i’m eighty years old
i have nothing
but a small house with no windows
[refrain]
i am the madwoman of cork
go away from me

[verse 7]
and if i die now
don’t touch me
i want to sail in a long boat
from here to roche’s point
and there i will anoint
the sea
with oil of alabaster

[outro]
i am the madwoman of cork
and today
is the feast day of saint anne
feed me
