Horslips

Horslips are an Irish celtic rock band that compose, arrange and perform songs based on traditional Irish jigs and reels. The group are regarded as 'founding fathers of celtic rock' for their fusion of traditional Irish music with rock music and went on to inspire many local and international acts. They formed in 1970 and 'retired' in 1980 for an extended period. The name originated from a spoonerism on The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse which became "The Four Poxmen of The Horslypse". more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Solid as a chair from an older time
You watched me slowly grow away from you
Only half understood the things I had to do
But you let me try although it brought the pain to you
You let me try x 2

Chorus:
The best and oldest furniture cannot be rearranged
If it suits the way it is there is no need to change
The best and straightest arrow is the one that will range
Out of the archers view

Verse 2:Badly beaten by the troubles you had to bear
You invested everything you had in me
Hoping I would hoist your flag for all to see 
But I broke the things you cherished so carefully
You watched them break x 2

Chorus:The best and oldest furniture cannot be rearranged
If it suits the way it is there is no need to change
The best and straightest arrow is the one that will range
Out of the archers view
