Three Years
By Jimmy Dunne

Three years to the day, this day,
All my fears had gone away,
My spirit soared as my body lay
In a Ballymun passageway

A thick rubber band and a silver spoon
Sent me flying to the moon,
aaaaah but it was over much too soon,
I crashed back down into Ballymun gloom

I took a leap and then a jump
I crashed the corolla off a hump
Soon will come my hearts very last thump
My hair is falling out in clumps

Three years ago to the day
In a Ballymun passageway
