In Punjab the cops want a word
With a menacing terrorist bird
That’s been spreading fear
All over Kashmir

Rory McIlroy (right) points out a heckler at yesterday’s British Open
I come here in sadness to say
Europe lost to the great USA
There was heartbreak and tears
And mean-spirited jeers
Which I will not repeat, oh no way.

Minister for Finance Michael Noonan and Minister for Public Expenditure Paschal Donohoe at government buildings earlier this month.

But they have the cheek
To call it a hundred a year.

To see a magnificent sight
Each of the pair
Had incredible hair
And one spoke incredible shite.

If you’ve ever figured out that
Polyester looks good on a rat
Or made yourself wise
By studying lies
Then you’re an Ig Nobel copycat.

Taoiseach Enda Kenny with farmer Gerard King at the National Ploughing Championship on Tuesday
The festival we all adore
Is happening near Tullamore
And anytime now
The King of the Plough
Will be crowned and his subjects will roar.

One thing that brings everyone down
Is the wide vacant grin of a clown
A word to the wise:
This trend’s on the rise
And soon it will come to your town.
