I was a happy boy living on the dole    When you came and ruined it all on me    I'd sit for hours all day in my good friend's home    Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea    We were so happy there, talk our lives away    Talking 'bout our hopes and all our dreams    Till you came round one day with your great big plan    And you tried to ruin me with your schemes    And your Mammy and your Daddy well they call you Mary    But they shoulda called you Deathwatch    Shoulda called you Deathwatch    Cause you nearly were the death of me    Lads told me you were no good I turned them away    Said that you just wanted things from me    Then you made me get a job and I understood    I was in too deep I'd not be free    And then I gave up drink cos you asked me too    I was shaving each day before long    Then you said we had to save for a mortgage soon    That was when the light began to dawn    Didn't even say goodbye just walked away    From the burderns you had put on me    Don't know why I even tried to be something I'm not    All I know's I wanted to be free    Now I'm a happy boy living on the dole    Smoking cigarettes and drinking tea    I'll find some other girl to have me as I am    You can take your twisted love to sea
