Whiskey Business

Ireland is famous for Whiskey,
And other things can be quite risky,
Such as passing the cattle,
Which can be a battle,
When at milking times they can be frisky!

The Milk Maid

An Irish maid once churning butter,
Saw a lad who did make her heart flutter,
She set sights on him,
But it turned pretty grim,
Cos she turned out to be a right nutter!

Pint of Beamish, please...

It's only a matter of taste,
If an Irishman sups beer with haste,
For the more that he drinks,
The less that he thinks,
How his wife will regard his big waist...

Precious Priest

Said the priest to the young girl, "I say!
I believe you are going my way!"
She shook her head madly,
And remarked at him sadly,
"There's my Dad! I think you'd better pray!"

Dealing Out The Dail

In politics nothing is clear,
When we're told that there's nothing to fear,
'Bout the climate of lending,
They're fiercely defending,
By saying, "Have another, m'dear!"

The Economic Crisis for Dummies

I'm so tired of listening to bankers,
Who've proved that they're poor second rankers,
The stunts that they pull,
Are full of such bull,
They've exposed themselves as total...
wallies!

A Cork Song

On the banks of my own lovely Lee,
I was feeling so gloriously free,
When along came the Garda*,
Which made it much harder,
To liberally finish my pee!
