Give or take a line.

You’re not American a misled imposterer, I bet that voice changes when you’re force fed phosphorus/ A collar-less heretic with dreams of being prosperous, high off life I don’t need to smoke pollen dust/ Heartbeats thunderous and sudden rush of blood and guts, you’re not a gangster you travel via shuttle bus / (Haa) I got your dark thoughts shuffled up, and who thought the kid from the town would use a subtle touch…

The heart of Michael Collins, the pride of De Valera,
A revolutionary state of mind like Che Guevara
The Will of Bobby Sands, the passion of Gerry Adams,
Its iLL Psychz (iLL Psychz) coming at ‘em!

“IN recent days, both David McWilliams and Bruce Arnold have been arguing with some force that Ireland should leave the euro and establish its own currency. They are not alone in their opinions. I believe that people who advocate this line of action are in effect supporting car-crash economics.

If we crash a car and are lucky enough to survive, we will be taken to hospital, put into intensive care and at some stage we will start to get better. And getting better is good, of course. But would anybody crash a car in order to feel better at some later stage? Not very likely.”

Seriously.

Who writes this crap?
