It’s been a long year for the Pope,
That shining white liberal hope,
His big beaming smile,
Can charm and beguile,
Any chance of reform? Well, erm, nope.

I’ve never been one to condone,
Those “psychics” who work on the phone,
How they keep their face straight,
Charging premium rate,
For nonsense, to me is unknown.

Those holding the Trotskyite flame,
Have decided they need a new name,
Their old title lacks
An attack on the tax,
And the comrades thought that was a shame.

[UCD’s Morgan Kelly]
An economist told a sad tale,
Of a college inside of the pale,
Which was run by a clown,
Who dumbed everything down,
And wouldn’t let anyone fail.

Some atheists often disdain,
Lent, when we try to abstain,
From chocolate, or booze,
Or blowing your fuse,
And knocking lumps out of a train.

[Enda Kenny and European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso in Dublin last year]
The bailout is over, and yet,
We still have a mountain of debt,
So the IMF crew,
Are here to review,
How the terms of their diktats are met.

Were you watching the strange event which,
They are calling a technical glitch?
Primetime got caught,
Looping one single thought,
Causing twitter to grumble and bitch.

For a moment my heart skipped a beat,
When I read of the source of the tweet,
Letting prisoners go,
Backstage at a show,
Seemed like a wonderful treat.
