You Can't Fool The Beast

Lyricist：Carr Eamon John, Devlin Barry Paul, Fean John Martin Richard, Lockhart James Francis, O Connor Charles Leslie

There has always been great speculation
As to the nature of the Brown Bull
In the manuscripts the Bull is referred to as
'An Donn Cuailgne'

While the word 'Donn' means brown
It is also the name
Of the ancient Irish god of the dead

There is also a related story
Which tells how two malevolent magicians
Take the shape of bulls
And resume a long standing feud

You can fool the woman

One of these days
You're gonna fool the man

'Cause you've got the insight
You can see a world of things
They can't understand

You can say you're winning
You can count the score
And say you know that they've lost

But you'll end up admitting
That the price is more
Than simply counting the cost
