Paul Muldoon - Macgillycuddy's Reeks lyrics

She stood beside my narrow bed To check my E.K.G She shook her pretty little head At what's become of me I thought I glimpsed a path that led Through rhododendron days And fuchsia nights to the boat shed In which we two once lay But she gazed only at my chart The valleys and the peaks Brought back the time she broke my heart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks But she gazed only at my chart The valleys and the peaks Brought back the time she broke my heart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks I saw her on k**arney's shore One morning in July When I still thought I was a thorn Trying to find a side I met her in the little launch That runs to Innisfallen Hunched together, haunch to haunch Trying to keep my balance But she upset my applecart She kissed me on the cheek And I was struck by Cupid's dart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks Macgillycuddy's Reeks Macgillycuddy's Reeks When I was struck by Cupid's dart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks She was a systems an*lyst For a dot com company She said, "You think because we've kissed I'll be yours eternally" "I'll sign another pre-nup And we'll merge our P.L.C.s That's why most girls go belly-up In this economy" But when it comes to a jump start Your forecast's pretty bleak The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts Like Macgillycuddy's Reeks Macgillycuddy's Reeks, boy Macgillycuddy's Reeks The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts Like Macgillycuddy's Reeks She looked only at my chart The valleys and the peaks Brought back the time she broke my heart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks Macgillycuddy's Reeks Macgillycuddy's Reeks That was the time she broke my heart In Macgillycuddy's Reeks
