RÓISÍN MURPHY:

Unputdownable

 

 

 

A quiet place to sit

A little light to see

Some time to read

Is really all I need

 

You’re unputdownable

A story so confounding

The pages turn so easily

 

You are my favourite book

And I like to spend my time

I’m fully occuplied

Reading between the lines

 

You’re unputdownable

A plot that’s so unpredictable

That I read on complacently

 

Well I’m left in confusion

By your epilogue

Where is the conclusion

A narrative arc

 

Well it’s just been enthralling

The disbelief suspended

On top, standing still

No myth or fairy tale

Will ever be quite the same

No moral to the story

You only go down in a blaze of glory

 

You’re unputdownable

A fable so fantastical

I’ve learned to read voraciously

And when at last I come to the end

I turn back to page one and again

Pour over every word

Beautiful and absurd

 

You’re unputdownable

A story so astounding

Could only be the truth you see

Well I don’t like intrusions

And if I had my way

I’d close the door behind me

And they’d all melt away

I’d open up the book and

Climb right out of the town

 

If you’d let me

If you’d be so kind

If you’d allow me

To read your mind

If you’d let me

If you’d be so kind

If you’d allow me

 

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind

To read your mind
