To this graveyard of burnt-out cars
We would always come
Me and Maradona Dunne
As childhood friends, we were thick as thieves
And even by our early teens
We'd been branded local fiends
This is where we'd always be
It's what we called out sanctuary
It's where we hid the stuff you see
Shaven heads and 501s
Short sleeve shirts and Harrington's
We thought we sparkled in the sun
But now the sun is burning in my eyes
They state the name, time and date
For the purpose of the tape
As I stare blankly into space
Jesus, I'm really terrified
For the first time in my life
They state the sentence could be halved
If I would only implicate
Give them my associate, your name
Sits uneasy a my tongue
But we were princes in our day
So I can bring myself to say
That it was Maradona don't
That it was Maradona don't
Even by their grave of our best mate
You smiled and said you couldn't wait
To be among the heavyweights
In the light of the event
For a moment I saw sense and I told you
I was going straight
But you said it would never work
A job was only for a mug
That I was born and bred a thug
Always one more job and we'd be done
We dreamed of pulling off the biggest one
So we could fly into the sun
But now the Sun is sinking in my eyes
In my head, I hear you say
About how we'd always get away with it
Well I hope you're happy now
'Cause I'm really terrified
For the first on in my life
And there is nothing you can say
That will ever compensate
Unless you're willing to confess to it
Your name is poison on my tongue
But we were princes in our day
So I can't bring myself to say
That it was Maradona done
That it was Maradona Dunne
In this graveyard of burnt-out cars
I wish or skinny body hung, Maradona Dunne
For now, the Sun is almost gone away
And in my head, I hear you say
About how we'd always get away with this well now
Well I hope you're satisfied
I'm contemplating suicide
For the first time in my life
There is nothing you can do
And there is nothing you can say
That will ever compensate
Unless you're willing to confess to it
Your name is poison and my tongue
Your name is poison and my tongue
But we were high kings in our day
So I can't bring myself to say
That it was Maradona Dunne
It was Maradona Dunne
That it was Maradona Dunne
It was Maradona Dunne
