Instead of some nice festive cheer,
These Sisters are living in fear,
In the dark of the night,
Some of their sprouts took flight,
It’s clearly the crime of the year.

The use of the phrase “laissez-faire”,
Is common in politics where,
The talk is of shops,
Not slaughtering cops,
Then admitting you don’t really care.

A caveman from somewhere out west,
Has announced that he’s found a new vest,
Which he’ll wear, for a while,
With an unctuous smile,
And then ditch it once put to the test.

A priest in Buncrana has said,
That while you’re out mourning the dead,
He won’t want to see,
You sipping some tea,
And heaven forbid you bring bread.

If you have to purchase a toy,
For an ungrateful wee girl or boy,
Then this annual night,
Of cheap plastic shite,
Is certain to bore and annoy.

I love it when idiots choose,
To try to barge in to the news,
But then wail and fret,
When their presence is met,
By someone expressing his view.

Mr Ogle, a union boss,
Is making the whole nation cross,
Like a Stalinist Grinch,
He’s planning to pinch,
Your Christmas and not give a toss.

Today is a good day to fret,
Over this weekend’s big rugby bet,
Now both teams are picked,
I’m trying to predict,
The scale of the kicking we’ll get.

John Larkin is drawing a line,
In the sand. From now on he’ll decline,
Ever to prosecute,
Those who murder and shoot,
The past is the past and that’s fine.
