Damien Rice (7 de diciembre de 1973, Celbridge, County Kildare) es un músico irlandés.
Originalmente Rice fue el cantante de Juniper, una banda de rock que llegó a lanzar los singles "The World Is Dead" y "Weatherman". En la víspera de la grabación de su primer álbum en 1999, a Rice no le gustó la dirección comercial que estaba tomando el disco, debido a la presión de la discográfica Polygram, y decidió abandonar el grupo.
Sus compañeros de Juniper se convirtieron en Bell X1.

GGEm You can hold her hand
GGG and show her how you cry
GGEm Explain to her your weakness so she understands
GGG and then roll over and die
GGEm Well you can brave decisions
GG before you crumble up
G inside
GGEm Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
GGG and then run away and hide
GGEm You can sit on chimneys
GGG put some fire up your ass
GGEm No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
GGG but if any one should ask?
GGEm Tell them I've been licking coconut skins
GGG and we've been hanging out
GGEm Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
GG and relieve us
G our doubt
Bridge -x2-: GGEmGGG
GGEm You can hold her eggs
GGG But your basket has a hole
GGEm You can lie between her legs And go lookin' for:
GG Tell her you're searching for
G her soul!
GGEm You can wait for ages
GGG and watch your compost turn to coal
GGEm But time is contagious:
GGG Everybody's getting old.
GGEm You can sit on chimneys
GGG put some fire up your ass
GGEm No need to know what you're doing or looking for
GGG but if any one should ask?
GGEm Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins
GGG and we've been hanging out
GGEm Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
GGG and relieve us our doubt
