What'll I Do Lyrics

What'll I do without you around,
my words wont pun, my pennies won't pound,
oh and my frisbee flies to the ground,
what'll I do without you.

What'll I say without you to talk to,
no one to serve or volley the ball to,
you write the words but I miss the volume,
what'll I say without you.

Oh I don't know what to do with myself
now that I'm here and you're gone.

What'll I do when you've gone away,
my ball wont pin, my records won't play
and all of my hours limp into days,
what'll I do without you.

What'll I do now that you're gone,
my boat won't row, my bus doesn't come,
I have the fingers, you've got the thumb,
what'll I do without you.

Oh I don't know what to do with myself
now that I'm here and you're gone.

This is my new favorite Lisa Hannigan song!

"my ball won't pin" must be either some dirty Irish slang or perhaps a bowling reference...

I think she's talking about playing a pinball game poorly...the ball won't pin

Very creative lyrics. She has so many ways of saying what she'll do without him (yes, most likely Damien).
