A former slave, sometimes called Pat
Came back over here to say that
A shamrock, you see
Is both one and three
So paste it on all your cheap tat.

The whole system’s starting to creak
Beneath the great orange skinned freak
A court stopped his ban
Which enrages a man
Who thinks human rights make him look weak.

A scientist from a big school
Has said he supports the old rule
If food’s on the floor
For five seconds, no more
Then eat it. Don’t worry. It’s cool.

The Taoiseach has had to explain
Why won’t bring his shamrock by plane
A wee bit of snow
Means that plan’s a no-go
So he’ll have to make do with a train.

Some TV Producers have said
That a ginger pop singer called Ed
Will appear on their show
Which means, we all know
He’ll once more get stabbed in the head.

The launch of The ‘Anti Austerity Alliance – People Before Profit’ party, October 8, 2015
When you’re slipping behind in the game
Don’t change tack, just adopt a new name
And let the whole world
Watch your new flag unfurled
And then carry on just the same

Pro Choice protesters (left) face off against Pro Life campigners outside Leinster House last night
If you’re waiting to find out the fate
Of the famous amendment called 8
Which can mean life or death
Well don’t hold your breath
Whatever will come will come late

British writer and journalist Melanie Phillips
A tiresome old jingoist Brit
Had a brain fart and sat to write it
Her boring fixation
With this blessed nation
Caused twitter to have a shit fit.

Now Trump has updated his plan
To bring in a new Muslim ban
That ensures huddled masses
Won’t get travel passes
Unless they’re approved by the Klan.

Our economy seems on the mend
So if you want the dark years to end
Then you and your spouse
As you save for a house
Must go shopping and spend spend spend spend.
