Live recording from the RTÉ/South Wind Blows Television Series 'Other Voices'

lyrics

Cain & Abel [o'farrell/murphy]

Naked men in the deserts are feeding the peasants
And watch out for Cain he comes down like the rain.
Abel’s not able to eat from the table
Because his throat got cut when Cain was using the razor
Cain is now a barber heavy into fashion
And that Neolithic style is really all the rage,
Watch out for the Bible cried the man inside the tower
But his mind was choked when the Devil swung the rope

Why can't you see,
It's not what I ever wanted?
Just you and me,
And what we believe

The feeling was growing like the flowers only faster
When the flies took a trip on a ship to Majorca
By the time they came back the politicians had the answer
So the problem unsolved soon led to disaster.
Somebody blamed someone said we were responsible
I couldn't take it said, "I broke the handle,
They came down really fast and said, "Hey! it's all over"
But I was only joking and the handles still broken

Why can't you see,
It's not what I ever wanted?
Just you and me,
And what we believe

And what we believe

Naked men in the deserts are feeding the peasants
And watch out for Cain he comes down like the rain.
Abel’s not able to eat from the table
Because his throat got cut when Cain was using the razor
Cain is now a barber heavy into fashion
And that neolithic style is really all the rage,
Watch out for the Bible cried the man inside the tower
But his mind was choked when the Devil swung the rope

Oh yeah
Oh yeah
