I think I’ll go out on a limb,
And declare my great love for dear Kim,
He’s a panacea,
For good old Korea,
And he makes other leaders look dim.

I’m not sure if you’ve heard, but it’s true,
Good old Ireland now runs the EU,
We’ll only cause trouble,
Start a property bubble,
And get Merkel smashed on home brew.

As you load up on turkey and beer,
And you kid yourself this is a mere,
Bullshit family day,
Let’s have fun and just play,
I love writing these, see you next year.

Young Mary, conceived without sin,
Was told there’s no room at the inn,
So she lay in a shed,
With some hay for a bed,
And gave birth to God’s next of kin.

We had an idea for a book,
Full of pictures of items that look,
Like Ireland you see,
It’s all for charity,
And we’ll sell it by hook or by crook.

Literally Maze balls.
From Irish Election Literature:
A Christmas card produced, I assume by the Republican movement or Sinn Fein. I think its from the 70s or early 80s. Marie Drumm was a former vice president of Sinn Féin who was assassinated whilst in hospital by Loyalists in 1976. She was also a commander in Cumann na mBan.
Once we get through this time of good cheer,
We’ll find if Obama’s sincere,
Let him score his home run,
By banning the gun,
And let schoolchildren live through next year.

Raise up your hands and rejoice,
The archbishops have lent us their voice,
It seems that TDs,
Should vote as they please,
At long last the church is pro choice.

When working in foreign affairs,
One should really have something upstairs,
Because the festive season,
Is not a good reason,
For horrible facebook shares.

On a windy and grey Saturday,
Our whole country was struck with dismay,
Let the ballads be sung,
For we we lost him too young,
Anois, slán agat, Páidí Ó Sé.
