Letra

Hey, does anybody remember '82?
(Yeah, yeah, I remember it)
You do?
(sure) (yeah)
I mean, can I reminisce?
(sure) (go ahead, go on)
You don't mind or anything?
(If you want to)
Can I get personal?
(sure) (do what you wanna do)
It's not to offend anybody or... you wouldn't object or anything?
(why should it?)
You sure?
(come on, man, do what you want)
O.K

One, Two, Yeah!
Uhh
Let me go back further, let me go back further if I may
(please do, go on, yeah)
It was uh, It was a rainy afternoon
It was two, maybe three months ago... I, I first started to reminisce
I first, I first started to reflect, you know
I was walking by the Thames at the time and I started to think about the summer of 1980
So what I did, I wrote this down on a piece of lined white paper while I still felt strongly about it
Here's what I recall

It was August 1980, I was searching for the spirit of Brendan Behan in the bars of Dublin
I mean, at this point I had a bit of a reputation as something of a searcher
(I see, I see)
Ya, I mean I still have for that matter but perhaps even more at this point
Anyway, I went from one bar to another
I mean I started off with a couple of friends but after a short while I think they just decided to abandon the search
Well, you know how it is, they probably had other plans or something
(sure) (yeah)
I mean me, I carried on, you know, I was determined, I went from one bar to another
I went, I went to Brannigans, I went to Flanagans

You know like in the song, you know, the one about the donkey You know that one?
(yeah) (yeah yeah I've heard it) (oh yeah, yeah)
I mean like 'cause... the thing is I, I've gotta confess you know, at this point I wasn't feeling on top of the world, you know
(no?)
No. Frankly, no. No sir
(in other words you wasn't exactly laughing)
No, I wasn't exactly walking down the road with a spring in my step. You know, happy-go-lucky wasn't... wasn't my middle name
(I know what you mean)

I mean, I'd heard that blind man, that man with the glasses on, I heard him singing
Uh, I didn't like the song, you understand
(of course, yeah)
No, but I did know what he meant about the higher ground, you know, I knew what he meant about the higher ground
(you did?)
I did, yeah
(you understood)

So anyway, I... I went into this one bar
I can't remember the name of it, it doesn't really matter now
But, I mean, you know by this time I was getting
I was getting really impatient, so I plucked up the courage to ask somebody and... and I noticed a man he was uh probably in his early thirties
He was well built. He had ginger hair and a big fierce powerful face
Ahhh, he looks like the type who'd know I thought, you know
(yeah)

"Excuse me, do you know where I can find the spirit of Brendan Behan," said I
"Brendan Behan?" said he
"Yes," said I
"New York," said he
"New York!" said I
"New York," he said again quickly

(New York!)
Yeah
(why, man, that's three thousand miles due west!)
Yeah
(I mean you were on the wrong side of the world!)
I know
(huh, so what did you do?)
Well, what could I do?
I just got out of there, I put my coat on. I got out of there. I walked straight out of there. I walked down the road, and I started to sing

OoOOOhh OO OOO OOO
Whoahh ahh
OOO O OOOh ah
Said, OOO O OOOh

Don't matter much lately
Don't, Don't matter much lately
It don't

Fffthhhhh
Ohhh
(it don't matter) (it don't matter) (it don't matter)
Sing, OWWWW!
OWWWW!
(it don't matter)
And then, you know, there's always uh... one or two things to be learned, to be learned from an experience like this
(it don't matter)
I, I uh
(it don't matter)
I know one thing
(it don't matter)
(what's that?)
Ken Livingstone is a folk hero
(what are you talking about?)
You know what I'm talking about
(I don't know what your talking bout)
You know what I'm sayin'
(no!)
I'm making perfect sense
(that's rubbish)
You're the one who's coming out...
(that's crap!)
You know what I'm sayin'
(no I don't know what you're talking about)
It's the truth, it's the truth, oh yes
(it don't matter)
(it don't matter)
(it don't matter)
(it don't matter)
