You're a bum, you're a punk, you're an old slut on junk

Hur sönderspelad och utsliten Fairytale of New York med The Pogues och Kirsty MacColl än må vara, blir jag ändå alltid lite gråtfärdig av den. Det är mest sista versen - bitter och kärleksfull på samma gång - som gör det:

Shane: I could have been someone.

Kirsty: Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you.

Shane: I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you .
