So now let the contest begin,
Let the young ones all jig, reel and spin,
At least in Irish Dance,
We might have half a chance,
At a world championship we could win.

Tourists have high expectations,
When visiting sunny locations,
But bathers in Chile,
Will find it quite silly,
To see so many dying crustaceans.

This Sunday is St Patrick’s Day,
You can go out and march, or just pray,
For the man who blessed lakes,
And got rid of our snakes,
Just stay out of New York if you’re gay.

Those poor Falkland Islands must stay,
Oppressed by the evil UK,
May our thoughts and our prayers,
Be mingled with theirs,
I hope they taste freedom someday.

The IKEA catering crew,
Have been forced to admit that it’s true,
When they go to bake,
A butterscotch cake,
The secret ingredient is poo.

So now that young Kate is with child,
She’s driving the tabloid press wild,
By seeming to tender,
A hint of its gender,
She should have stayed silent and smiled.

The mayor of Ballinasloe,
Was burgled not so long ago,
But to my relief,
She went for the thief,
And dealt him one hell of a blow.

It’s busy in St Peter’s Square,
The faithful have all gathered there,
To see the last show,
From the outgoing Joe,
And say their goodbyes, and a prayer.

Democracy can look unfit,
When Italian voters are split,
At the polling machine,
They can’t choose between,
Bersani, Grillo, or the shit.
