While our country is stuck on the rocks,
One TD is giving it socks,
He’ll clean up the land,
With a simple demand,
“Just stop messing about with your clocks”.

(Independence Day celebrations at the American ambassador’s Residence in Phoenix Park, Dublin, today)
Let the star spangled banner fly high,
For today is the fourth of July,
When millions of yanks,
Gather round and give thinks,
For your mother and for apple pie.

Brian and Terry and Bill,
And Peter said they’d rather kill,
Their party careers,
Than swallow their fears,
Like Lucinda and the others will.

So Ed wants to come over here,
For asylum, which seems rather queer,
So let’s lock up the scamp,
In the old Mosney camp,
He’ll soon decide to disappear.

I expect that some whingers will whine,
At this latest genetic design,
But they’ve no cause to fret,
For they knew what they’d get,
When they voted for Vic Frankenstein.

America’s most senior court,
Decided they could not support,
Those who wanted to cleave,
Poor old Adam from Steve,
And that marriage should not be a tort.

Goodbye, Ms Gillard, it was good,
While it lasted, but old Kevin Rudd,
Got his own back,
You once gave him the sack,
And this time he struck and drew blood.

We need leaders who will speak sense,
When current affairs grow this tense,
But how long must we wait,
In this banking debate,
For Jim Higgins to get off the fence?

The lads who were running the bank,
Were prepared to be utterly frank,
On the company phone,
Because they hadn’t known,
That we’d find out just how much they stank.
