about

JJ Johnston details the closure of a hairdresser’s long-standing salon during lockdown.

lyrics

If I bought a hazmat suit
Would it be alright to stay with you?
Every callous on my hands was worth the misery,
Please forgive me when I say it hurts to leave.
I can’t wait to take life for granted once again.

If Irish Green Street’s made for ghosts,
Safe to say that I’ll be haunted more than most.
Every face I’ve come to know feels like a memory,
But I gave you my name ‘cause you’re the best of me,
And I can’t wait to take life for granted once again.

And I’ll wait for you
With idle hands and nothing else to do
‘Cause I can’t wait to take life for granted once again.
I can’t wait to take life for granted once again.
