I can't make out some of the lyrics to the song "Love Is Where You'll Find It" by Dominic Behan (https://youtu.be/hX66XLQNDD8?t=168), hoping someone here can help me. LOVE IS WHERE YOU'LL FIND IT Dominic Behan Love laughs at luck [?] so they say and bachelors at Cupid But he who laughs another day may never look so stupid For Cupid's arrows they are sharp, make sure that you're behind it When the bow is strung like a lover's harp, love laughs at where you'll find it When Adam first met up with Eve, he had nothing much to say, dear But "Ain't the apples and their leaves quite beautiful and gay, dear?" He kissed her Technicolour[ed?] cheek and asked her if she minded She picked an apple from the tree saying "Love is where you'll find it" Now Moab knew what he to do if he should console his daughters Fill up the can with the wine of man, throw out the cool, clear waters For wine and love go hand in glove and love by wine is blinded A kiss today and oh, touché! Sweet love is where you'll find it Was it because of David's [shame/shade?] that hate consumed Uriah? And Samson's strength began to fade through talkin' with Delilah One thing you'll learn from history, forever after mind it [Weightlifting??]'s for the birds and the bees but love is where you'll find it Also, is the strange mistelling of the Bible story in the third paragraph intentional? It'd fit the comical nature of the song, but I'm not sure what the joke is supposed to be by replacing Lot with his grandson Moab, and seemingly suggesting it was he who came on to his daughters?
