Creeper - Fairytale of New York

[Verse 1: Will Gould]
It was Christmas Eve, babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me
"You won't see another one"
And then he sang a song
"A Rare Old Mountain Dew"
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

[Verse 2: Will Gould]
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen-to-one
I've got this feelin'
This year's for me and you
So, Happy Christmas
I love you, baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

[Verse 3: Hannah Greenwood, Will Gould, Both]
They've got cars big as bars, they've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you, it's no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome! You were pretty! Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing, they howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging, all the drunks, they were singing
We kissed on a corner then danced through the night

[Chorus: Will Gould & Hannah Greenwood]
The boys in the NYPD choir
Were singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

[Verse 4: Hannah Greenwood & Will Gould]
You're a bum! You're a punk! You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot, you're cheap and you're haggard
Happy Christmas, your arse, I pray God it's our last

[Chorus: Will Gould & Hannah Greenwood]
And the boys in the NYPD choir
Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

[Verse 5: Will Gould & Hannah Greenwood]
I could have been someone
Well, so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me, babe
I put them all with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

[Chorus: Will Gould & Hannah Greenwood]
The boys in the NYPD choir
Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

[Outro: Will Gould & Hannah Greenwood, Will Gould]
The boys in the NYPD choir
Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day
