00150547Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary

If Washington is a place where,
You’d go if you got a low fare,
It’s you should know,
You might get there, though,
You won’t make it with Ryanair.

1Westmoreland Street, Dublin last night

As St Patrick’s Day turned to night,
We were faced with the old fashioned sight,
Of those who appear,
To be full of beer,
Enjoying a puke and a fight.

A pious young taffy called Pat,
Many years ago told his chums that,
He’d work as a slave,
Then stay on to save,
The Irish, and wear a big hat.

You might want to skip the details,
Of Ireland’s defeat against Wales,
The Grand Slam is dead,
There’s a long week ahead,
Of southsiders biting their nails.

Bertie Ahern at St Luke’s Drumcondra, Dublin,

The building named after St Luke,
Is a property fit for a duke,
But what happened there,
Would make anyone swear,
And might make the new owners puke.
