The Old Alarm Clock - The Dubliners[00:00:01]

When first I came to London[00:00:07]

In the year of thirty nine[00:00:10]

The city looked so wonderful[00:00:13]

And the girls were so divine[00:00:16]

But the coppers got suspicious[00:00:18]

And they soon gave me the knock[00:00:20]

I was charged with being the owner[00:00:23]

Of an old alarm clock[00:00:25]

Oh next morning down by Barber street[00:00:29]

I caused no little stir[00:00:32]

The IRA were busy[00:00:34]

And the telephones did burr[00:00:37]

Said the judge I'm going to charge you[00:00:39]

With the possession of this machine[00:00:42]

And I'm also going to charge you[00:00:44]

With the wearing of the green[00:00:47]

Now says I to him Your honor[00:00:50]

If you'll give me half a chance[00:00:53]

I'll show you how me small machine[00:00:55]

Can make the peelers dance[00:00:58]

It ticks away politely[00:01:00]

Till you get an awful shock[00:01:03]

And it ticks away the gelignite[00:01:05]

In me old alarm clock[00:01:07]

Said the judge Now listen here my man[00:01:11]

And I'll tell you of our plan[00:01:14]

For you and all your countrymen[00:01:16]

I do not give a damn[00:01:18]

The only time you'll take is mine[00:01:20]

Ten years in Dartmoor dock[00:01:23]

And you can count it by the ticking[00:01:25]

Of your old alarm clock[00:01:28]

Now this lonely Dartmoor prison[00:01:31]

Would put many in the jigs[00:01:34]

The cell it isn't pretty[00:01:36]

And it isn't very big[00:01:39]

Sure I'd long ago have left the place[00:01:41]

If I had only got[00:01:44]

Ah me couple of sticks of gelignite[00:01:47]

And me old alarm clock[00:01:50]
