lyrics
Plain clothes police are breathing
Down the necks of those who are creeping
And I’m driving away
From Saturday night
And I’m going past the top of your street again tonight
The streetlights are flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
It’s the Shannon Road silent disco
La do da daa, la do da daa
Someone is burning his old wardrobe on the green
And all the kids are laughing
Barefooted on the grass
And the cold is coming in
It’s September again
The streetlights are flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
It’s the Shannon Road silent disco
La do da daa, la do da daa
You’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
And all the apples on the tree on the garden that was yours
Are all falling to the floor
Because you’re not here anymore
And the streetlights are still flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
Down the necks of those who are creeping
And I’m driving away
From Saturday night
And I’m going past the top of your street again tonight
The streetlights are flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
It’s the Shannon Road silent disco
La do da daa, la do da daa
Someone is burning his old wardrobe on the green
And all the kids are laughing
Barefooted on the grass
And the cold is coming in
It’s September again
The streetlights are flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
It’s the Shannon Road silent disco
La do da daa, la do da daa
You’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
And all the apples on the tree on the garden that was yours
Are all falling to the floor
Because you’re not here anymore
And the streetlights are still flickering on and off
On and off, on and off
