Hidden City 

Pentagram formed of paths, grass and trees in the centre of the city 

Looks pretty until you see it from a plane window, occult activity 

Dublin not as nice as it seems 

Parts of it seedy 

Prostitutes, muggings, drubbings 

Dodgy drug dealings 

Just shy of twenty five years 

And still no sight of poor Trevor Deely 

The police have been clear explicitly 

They believe he fell prey to foul play

Perhaps we’ll never know what happened that December day 

On Haddington Road 

His mobile phone rang out

No one heard a sound 

Mad theories go around 

Real IRA had a hand 

Wanted to plant a bomb below the bank

When Clinton arrived, bomb would go bang 

Think I’d call that misplaced anger 

It’s an odd angle 

They must be American 

That’s not how we tango

I expect, sadly, wrong place wrong time 

Walk around Dublin your life on the line 

From Dundrum to Crumlin 

Facades are crumbling 

Something this way is coming 

More wicked than the famous play 

Hits, not wickets in an English game

Bricks my fists surrealate your face 

Struggling to case correlate 

Names and dates 

No face no case.
