lirik lagu seán mckenna - coins in a wishing well
[verse 1]
oh, like coins in a wishin’ well every four years
into the dáil we throw shiny tds
as they sink ‘neath the surface, you’ll find over time
that their polished appearance starts losing its shine
[verse 2]
then four years later we open the purse
sure another few shillin’s can’t wish us much worse
as they sink ‘neath the water, they sink with a plop
but the thickest of scum always floats to the top
[verse 3]
now the scum in the well it affects all around
it stagnates thе water, it pollutes the ground
wе should cast these old coppers straight back to the mint
for this hand full of shrapnel has left ireland skint
[verse 4]
how many coins must i cast in this well
before i can wish meself out of this h~ll
four fifths of me wages are just gone on rent
and me very last shillin’ on wishin’ was spent
[verse 5]
wishin’ for that and then wishin’ for this
wishin’ the coins that i cast didn’t miss
well, if i had another i’d keep it and save
and not condemn it to this watery grave
[verse 6]
so this superstition i’ll heed no more
for the future of ireland has better in store
if you’re votin’ in landlords, well don’t think it strange
that just like the wishing well they won’t give you change
