The Radiators Kitty Ricketts (Chevron) Lyrics

The decent folk,
on All Souls Night
Light penny candles for the sweet repose
(Easy fortunes for fortune tellers, quick abortions in dingy cellars)

Of dearly loved and soon forgot
A word in St. Peter's ear my darling Rose
(La la la la,la la la la la)
Such simple faith is really all it takes
To rid the land of snakes
(God speed them on their way to Hell)
But it could never break Kitty Ricketts spell
She is handsome she is pretty She is the girl from Strumpet City Please can you tell me who is she?
Kitty Ricketts, you're not there but I can touch your hair
Kitty Ricketts 1 - 2 - 3 You're a ghost but I don't care

She's a carnal joy for Nightown boys
Whose five o'clock shadow begins at midnight
(Heart-warming for savage dreamers, Heart scalding for soul redeemers)
She's an apron string for Kings and poets Poets? Madmen! You should see the things they write!
(La la la la,la la la la la)
Well they say that as you make your bed so must you lie
And you could fall in love tonight
But you'll never walk the street of Paradise
She is handsome she is pretty
Lie lie la lie la lie lie, Oh God, how could she ever deserve them?
Lie lie la lie lie lie lie lie, Lie lie la lie, Lie lie la lie
Kitty Ricketts 1 - 2 - 3 You're a ghost but I don't care

Through the boulevards of Dublin She still walks among the city lights
(What a pity it's Altar City for Walter Mitty and Ricketty Kitty) Bad scran to all their virtues and their Saturday night delights (La la la la,la la la la la) The town clock tells her last week's time
But what the hell She's got all the time in the world
And you could fall in love tonight
But you'll never walk the street of Paradise

No, you'll never walk the streets of Paradise

But you can fall in love tonight.
