Joshua Bond

Joshua Walter McGeough Bond (1831 – 29 August 1905) was an Irish Conservative Party politician. Bond was elected Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for Armagh City at a by-election in 1855—caused by the death of Ross Stephenson Moore—but was then defeated by Stearne Miller at the next election. Although he regained the seat in 1859, he only held it for one term before retiring from the race in 1865. more »

I made myself a friend
I made him out of twigs and ash and clay
And sometimes I pretend he says
Exactly what I'm wanting him to say
He always says just what I needed to hear
He leans right in close and he whispers in my ear
And suddenly all of my troubles disappear
Because I know the happiest ones
Had to fight to get there
I made myself a friend
Made him out of sawdust and tears
Sometimes I pretend I've known him for many many years
We talk and reminisce about all the good times we've had
I fix him when he crumbles and he calms me when I'm sad
And if ever I'm in trouble, if my thinking drives me mad
Well then I'll know I've never been alone
Well it sure don't feel that way
Well I made myself a friend
Made him out of tin cans and wire
I made myself a friend
Melted down and forged him in a fire
Well I made myself a friend
Made him out of iron pots and pans
Well I made myself a friend
Made him with my bare goddamn hands
Well I made myself a friend
And I know he isn't real
Even I cannot pretend
You can make love out of steel
But something isn't proper
The metal's gone cold
There's green spots in the copper
And there's pyrite in the gold
If the omnipotent powers chose to let me grow old
Well then I'll know the loneliest ones
Praise the setting sun
And I just can't look away
