1
Sit down by the fire
2
And I'll tell you a story
3
To send you away to your bed
4
Of the things you hear creeping
5
When everyone's sleeping
6
And you wish you were out here instead
7
It isn't the mice in the wall
8
It isn't the wind in the well
9
But each night they march
10
Out of that hole in the wall
11
Passing through on their way
12
Out of hell
13
They're the things that you see
14
When you wake up and scream
15
The cold things that follow you
16
Down the Boreen
17
They live in the small ring of trees on the hill
18
Up at the top of the field
19
And they dance on the rain
20
And they dance on the wind
21
They tap on the window
22
When no-one is in
23
And if ever you see them
24
Pretend that you're dead
25
Or they'll bite off your head
26
They'll rip out your liver
27
And dance on your neck
28
They dance on your head
29
They dance on your chest
30
They give you the cramp
31
And the cholic for jest
32
They're the things that you see
33
When you wake up and scream
34
The cold things that follow you
35
Down the Boreen
36
They live in the small ring of trees on the hill
37
Up at the top of the field
38
They play on the wind
39
They sing on the rain
40
They dance on your eyes
41
They dance in your brain
42
Remember this place
43
It is damp and it's cold
44
The best place on earth
45
But it's dark and it's old
46
So lie near the wall
47
And cover your head
48
Good night and God bless,
49
Now fuck off to bed
