The Cranberries – Desperate Andy lyrics
He always holds on to his girlfriend
That's where he likes to be
He like to wear the ball and the chain on his neck
A false sense of security

And when he goes he goes with a smile X4

Desperate Andy a-a-a-a
Re la la la la la la
Desperate Andy a-a-a-a
Re la la la la la la la la la

The world is your oyster now
You can do as you want to do
The world is your oyster now
So go out and get high and get whatever you want to

Ma-na-na, ma-na-na, ma-na-na, ma-na-na
Ma-na-na, ma-na-na, ma-na-na, ma-na-na

He used to be a closet biker they say
A 1957 bsa
He used to collect writing paper
They wonder wonder wonder wonder wonder of

Desperate Andy a-a-a-a
Ra la la la la la la
Isn't it dandy a-a-a-a
Ra la la la la
Desperate Andy a-a-a-a
Ra la la la la la la la la la

The world is your oyster now
You can do as you want to do
The world is your oyster now
So go out and get high and get whatever you want to

The word is your oyster now
You can do as you want to do
The world is your oyster now
So go out and get laid and get whatever you want to
The world is your oyster
The world is yours

It's yours it's yours it's your's it's yours
It's yours it's yours it's your's it's yours

    I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THIS SONG IS ABOUT AND WHO IT IS WRITTEN ABOUT . I know the bike was a Harley Davidson a 1957 PANHEAD .Dolores used BSA because otherwise everyone would know straight away who the song was about , The ouldfella used ride BSA bikes ,The writing paper was collected for writing to relations and friends because back then there were no phones and writing to friends and family was how everyone kept in contact ,different colurs and different prints on the paper for people depending on what they liked ,it made things a bit more personal and special ,
