Story Behind The Song

Irish philosophy to be listened to with a pint of Guinness in your hand

Song Description

Irish philosophy to be listened to with a pint of Guinness in your hand A reflection of how live comes and goes but with a feel-good factor in the chorus

Lyrics

There is nothing greater or grander
Than a public house
Where you always find the meaning of life
By talking to yourself.
Patsy Riley is a legend for talking to himself
It all makes sense in the end
To all his invisible friends

And he'll say: (Chorus)

All the world is full of it
Watch out who you meet
All the world is full of people
Talking in the street
All this talk of love and money
Brings us all apart
All the world is full of it
From the very start


Growing up to settle down
Paying as you go
All the world is full of it
It's the only life we know
You want that man
You want that woman
You want that pretty face
Hoping you can fall in love
With nothing in disgrace

Chorus
All the world is full of it etc

Another day, another dollar
Keep the wolf from the door
Go to bed, dream in peace
Where only angels snore
It's all a mystery when we fall asleep
Waking up to start again
And promises to keep

Chorus
All the world is full of it etc


Now I think I'll go home
And talk to myself
Forget about the meaning of life
Leave it on the shelf
Maybe the global warming
Will come and have its say
Burn us up, freeze us out
Blow us all away
And we'll say

Chorus
All the world is full of it etc
