lyrics

idle hands
are the governments work
raise the pension age-
I'm going berserk

for a laugh, like
what I did it for
I dunno

these idle hands
have built a fortress of cushions
in my living room
this afternoon I have devoted my time
to a fortress
for my living room

cos it was there-
that bastard window
had to go
no one died ye know

for a lark
for the craic
of glass
no one died ye know

these idle hands
have built a fortress of cushions
in my living room
this afternoon I have devoted my time
to a fortress
for my living room

this afternoon
this afternoon
this afternoon
