ALMOST ANYTHING Sitting in the shade Of a summers day And it feels like I can be almost anything And I wonder How to make you mine And I wonder We’ve got all the time we need To be where we wanna be We’ve got everything we need To be, who we wanna be And what are you to me? What am I to you? I think I’ll go back to Lexington Avenue I think I’ll go back Lexington Avenue And I wonder How to make you mine And I wonder We’ve got all the time we need To be where we wanna be We’ve got everything we need To be, who we wanna be And the sun is shining for you and me And the trees are swaying for you and me And the band are playing for you and me Yeah the band are playing for you and me The sun is shining…

Animal 03:10
ANIMAL I see a little boy not a man In his hand an empty beer can A cigarette to light the way Indifferent I say I’m an animal baby I’m a wild one sugar I’m a vampire mister I’m a werewolf honey At night the city turns into a zoo The streets are paved for me and for you And there ain’t nothin’ I’d rather do Than someone like you I’m an animal baby I’m a wild one honey I’m a vampire sister I’m a werewolf mamma And when the dust has taken effect All my fears have been laid to rest Out of my head, out of my mind I’m crackin’ up I’m crackin’ up I’m crackin’ up I’m an animal baby I’m a wild one sugar I’m a vampire mister I’m a werewolf honey

CAN’T WALK OUT Hey, I can’t decide my fate I know it’s getting late I can’t afford to wait Hey, It’s not the change you bring It’s not the mood I’m in It’s not the song I sing Upside down and inside out Head is gone Upside down and inside out My head is gone I can’t walk out Hey, It’s ninety-eight degrees You’ve got me on my knees You’ve got me beggin’ please Hey It’s not that I am blind It’s just that I can’t find What’s goin’ through your mind Upside down and inside out Head is gone Upside down and inside out My head is gone I can’t walk out Hey, It’s not the suit I wear It’s not the pills I swear It’s not that I don’t care Hey, I’m proppin’ up the bar Three chords and this guitar Look out, we’ve gone too far Upside down and inside out Head is gone Upside down and inside out My head is gone I can’t walk out Too many vodkas, not enough coke Too many vodkas, not enough coke Too many vodkas, not enough coke I swear My head is gone

Dirty Dog 03:05
DIRTY DOG I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all I’m a dirty dog / Cause I like you I’m a son of a gun / You’re a pretty one I’m a son of a gun / You’re a pretty one I’m a son of a gun / Cause I like you Wanna be your man / Like nobody can Wanna be your man / Like nobody can Wanna be your man / Cause I like you Gonna chase you down / Run all over town Gonna chase you down / Run all over town Gonna chase you down / Cause I like you Goin straight to hell / When I ring your bell Goin straight to hell / When I ring your bell Goin straight to hell / Cause I like you I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all I’m a dirty dog / Cause I like you

LOVE DON’T GET ME HIGH You’re not my honey pie You’re not my butterfly anymore You’re not my nicotine You’re not my beauty queen anymore Honey, your love don’t get me high And I don’t really mind anymore Honey, your love don’t get me high And I don’t really mind anymore You’re not my saving grace You’re not my sweet embrace anymore You’re not my ball and chain You’re not my pure cocaine anymore Honey, your love don’t get me high And I don’t really mind anymore Honey, your love don’t get me high And I don’t really mind anymore I’m singing a new song…

Roses 04:08
ROSES I’ll write another love song And drop it on your head I’ll wave to you each morning Say things I’ve never said I’d like to bring you roses But roses only fade There ain’t no use in faking So here’s a song instead I wish the world could witness The love you bring to me Like Santa Claus at Christmas True love’s a mystery You know I never left you You never let me go We’ve always been connected It’s time I let you know We’ll always be connected It’s time I let you know Alone alone alone alone Alone alone alone alone We’ll never be

Seven 03:47
SEVEN Roaming I’m roaming the range again It’s good to be back again Roaming the range Strolling Strolling down Camden Street Here’s to the ones we meet Roaming the range I’ve got number seven on my back Feels like a heart attack No use in looking back Roaming the range Guess it’s too late Could have been great If we’d only got our story straight It could have been you and me ‘Sold Out’ to capacity Roaming the range Drifting We’re drifting down memory lane Nothing looks quite the same Roaming the range I’ve got number seven on my back Feels like a heart attack No use in looking back Roaming the range Never too late Still could be great If we only got our story straight It could have been you and me ‘Sold Out’ to capacity Roaming the range

Turn Around 01:56
TURN AROUND Dancing to the beat Swaying on my feet Running outta time Wishing you were mine I know what you want I know what you need I know just where you get it from I came for the ride And I just can’t decide Where I’m gonna sleep tonight You better turn around Take your time Dancing in the heat Swaying on my feet Running outta time Wishing you were mine I know what you want I know what you need I know just where you get it from I came for the ride And I just can’t decide Who it’s gonna be tonight You better turn around Take your time Turn around Take your time Honey be mine

about

BEAD Ireland

Dave Dwyer has used the moniker ‘Bead’ ™ since first playing Whelans of Wexford Street in 1994.

After seeing a poster in Tower Records, I got the idea to work with Morrissey‘s guitarist Boz Boorer. I travelled to Portugal and recorded the Battle Stations album and the Country Mountain EP.
