lyrics

When I first met you, I was nothing, not at all
Then you came and everything turned into a pretty dream
For you did what you had to, you did all that I expected
What was wrong, you put right, what was dirt, you did it clean, oh my angel

When you came to me, you said this house is a mess
You cleaned the whole thing, I have to say I was impressed
I thought you had such a talent for cleaning and keeping tidy
I married you and made you a housewife 'cos that was what you were meant to be

Now I'd cut the moon right into seventy pieces
To prove my love to you, just to get you back again
I've been such a silly jerk, I will never do it again
I promise I'll be good and treat you like the princess that you are

When I met you, I was nothing at all
But now you've left me 'cos I didnt treat you well
It's such a shame I did never realise
how much you meant to me and how bad I've been treating you, my dear

"Pack your things and leave
Don't want you here
Don't want you near so hit the road
And get the hell away
I've had enough
Of your sick ways"

Now you're coming back and we're all happy again
We'll throw a big party, we'll invite all of our friends
We'll have lots of fun tonight, but before, there's work to do
So get back to that kitchen, do these dishes 'til you die of exhaustion!

about

Ceili Moss Namur, Belgium

Red hot pan-European folk-rock. That’s how you might describe us in a few words. G.Williams (Widdershins) said it best: "They're not as punk as The Pogues, but they have a bit of that attitude and it gives them an edge many groups lack".

Original songs, mistreated traditionals, we take it all, put it in our cauldron and whoever says it's not "orthodox" or "as it should be" gets a smack bottom ... more
