'I'd like to share a song
that I wrote this week
Inspired by a dream'...
'James Dean'
Captured by robbensonphoto.com
Lyrics:
It stabbed me in the chest like the pimp prudent's knife
Into poor wandering Becket under a mother of Pearl sky
At the back of the wall, I bawled, cursing all in reel and rhyme
While feeling out of sorts like a road sweeper dressed up to the nines
As the multi-colored kite over shoulders taking flight
And the local matador gives two fingers to the girl next door
I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today
Looking for the quiet life, working for Irish rail
And in me father's clothes with a bloody nose I sang "Isn't it so sweet?"
There by the slot machine, there's James Dean out cold beneath my feet
And the disciples from the street
They all burst in through open doors
And the creaking of the chairs and the running down the stairs
Pure ecstasy
The circus master smiles pointing his finger at the mime
I hear the distant call of a boy named Paul who was taken before his time
And all the precious stones or the mongrel's bone won't entice me, you silly child
You just run on home for your tea's gone cold
And your mother cursed you blind
And the backdoor man feels wrong for switching off when signing on
And the double-jointed thief wins an award for pure indecency
I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today
Looking for the quiet life, working for Irish rail
And in me father's clothes with a bloody nose I sang "Isn't it so sweet?"
There by the slot machine, there's James Dean out cold beneath my feet
Then the disciples from the street
They all burst in through open doors
And the creaking of the chairs and the running down the stairs
Pure ecstasy
I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today
He's working for Irish rail
Nearly 2 years later and I still listen to this song on repeat! One of the most beautiful pieces of music out there❤️
Every listen better than the one before. The sign of a beautiful piece of work!
Brilliant song. No dates for the tour in the South of England 😢 Saw David supporting Counting Crows in Dublin last year. He was the highlight of the trip.
This song made me hooked on this man's music! Class 👌
Loved your performance on Saturday.. I'll be sure to spread the word man.. Fair play
Excellent
Not bad for a right handed fella, James Dean was the rebel in us all, he did in four motion pictures put so much energy. He could have become a David Keenan. You are living the chance that was taken from him in a instant. We R but dust in the wind.......... ❤️
Very very good. Keep @ it!!
Seen you in Vicar Street with Glen Hansard last september. Can't wait to see you on a show of your own one day !
Just headlined Whelan's last Saturday...Sold out. They were turning punters away!

"It stabbed me in the chest like the pimp prudent's knife, into poor wandering Beckett under a mother of pearl sky"
James grows old, he grows old....he still wears the bottom of his trousers rolled......

Stabbed me in the chest like the pimp prudence knife. Into poor wandering Beckett under a mother of pearl sky.
At the back of the wall I bawl cursing all in reel and rhyme, while feeling out of sorts like a roadsweeper dressed up to the nines. As the multicoloured kite, over shoulders taking flight. And the local matador gives two fingers to the girl next door.
Chorus: I had a dream that James Dean was alive and well today, looking for the quiet life working for Irish Rail, and in me fathers' clothes with a bloody nose I sang isn't it so sweet. By the slot machine there's James Dean out cold beneath my feet. And the disciples from the street all burst in through open doors and the creaking of the chairs and the running down the stairs, pure ecstacy.
The circus master stares and points his finger at the mime. I hear a distant call of a boy named Paul who is taken before his time. And all the precious stones and the mongrel's bone won't entice me you silly child. You just run on home 'fore your tea's gone cold and your mother cursed you blind. And the backdoor man feels wrong switching off when signing on, and the double jointed thief wins an award for pure indecency.
Chorus.
Superbe!!
