wrote this in 2007, always meant to make a cool video of meself on the election trail but the past week of imovie crashing has made me churn out this instead. its on guerrilla love songs. The dialect is from a speech made in 1982. it goes a little something like this;

in the morning i would count
the striplights on the valley floor
and the rabid sounds that wrung
in the bow legged city's bowels

on the teaming banks of liffey
they will charge you for the entry,
the exit and the wound oh lord
thick is thicker than water
a shame to the boss

it was the best i could count
what the welfare would allow
a gamble on a trojan horse
or the scrambles of a starving dog

on the teaming banks of liffey
where they charge you for the entry
listen to thenews oh lord and think about the brown waters - a shame to the boss

i could never count
the striplights on the valley floor
or the gaps between the clouds
but i remeber when the light went out

on the teaming banks of liffey
did they charge you for the entry
for the exit of the boss oh lord
for the peeling of the christchurch bell
a shame to the boss

brian cowan quotes captain a quoting charlie haughey

The Taoiseach says "we're living way beyond our means".

Speaking at an Ogra Fianna Fail conference in Co Donegal today, Brian Cowen also challenged the Opposition to provide details of how they would cut 4 billion euro in December's budget.

Echoing Charlie Haughey's words in the 1980's the Taoiseach said we were living way beyond our means

Brian Cowen said for every 30 euro of income, we're spending over 50 euro.

Rejecting the call from union bosses for an eight year strategy to correct the public finances, the Taoiseach said that would add 40 billion euro onto our national debt.

Ahead of next week's Dail debate on the pre budget outlook Brian Cowen said the country deserves to see exactly how the Opposition would achieve the 4 billion euro in savings.

He said it was time the Opposition produced some coherent proposals rather than rhetoric and condemnation.
