I’m sure that you all will agree,
This news is a good thing to see,
Despite all our fears,
A jury of peers,
Let our national hero go free.

In Kerry they feel at a loss,
For their council room lacks a big cross,
To stand proud between,
Some crook, some gombeen,
And some slimy political boss.

This morning we must bid adieu,
To the brilliant and glorious Sue,
And take time to extol,
The great Adrian Mole,
So well written, and funny, and true.

Let the warning ring out far and wide,
Three thousand more clampings outside,
Each pair of bright lines,
Brings in extra fines,
Cars may run, but they no longer hide.

The councillors up in Fingal,
Have decided they will not play ball,
Much to Hogan’s delight,
The proposed plebescite,
Won’t be put to the people at all.

Is it too late to stop and ask why,
We’re bidding our culture goodbye?
It’s a beautiful game,
So it’s really a shame,
To sell off the bogball to Sky.

Our response to the Crimean crime,
Falls somewhat short of sublime,
Mere sanctions, alas,
On Muscovite gas,
Will never mean peace in our time.

For years I have waited to see,
This triumph of democracy,
After decades of pain,
Inside the Ukraine,
At long last Crimea is free.

This weekend you’d best not be seen,
Wearing anything other than green,
Or else you might miss,
A chance of a kiss,
With an equally hammered colleen.

An economist told a sad tale,
Of a college inside of the pale,
Which was run by a clown,
Who dumbed everything down,
And wouldn’t let anyone fail.
