Rebel Song Dave April 9, 2013 Blogs Sweary When schoolgirls dread was in my blood I read of ancient demons Haugheys kind has gone for good No need for me to flee, then. But then when I grew up, my fears Were sadly not in vain, Our first world countrys fucked and heres Damnation once again. Damnation once again! Damnation once again! Coz Irelands fucked it up so heres Damnation once again! We had a Celtic Tiger, true. Its might was very mighty. It brought us wealth, but oh boo hoo Its might was also flighty And while we borrowed for new cars The tiger slunk to Spain To hang out with Dub dealers On probation once again. Probation once again! Probation once again! We might as well go back on junk Sedation once again zzz The first sign was the banks, coz they were looking very shifty The Times began to often say that we should be more thrifty The builders noticed less to build And started to complain We saw the Tiger had been killed Starvation once again! Starvation once again! Starvation once again! Now own brand pizzas looking good Desperation once again! Bertie panicked, ran away Said, Brian, heres a promotion! Take the reigns this rainy day Whilst I skip this commotion. Brian Cowens neck got thicker as He prepared for mental strain And now he wants to kick your arse Over deflation once again. Deflation once again! Deflation once again! But Ireland knows just how to cope Taxation once again! For guidance through these times, we need A wise, empathic kingpin Instead who did we choose to lead? Motley gobshites from the sin bin. An unelected Taoiseach whos puffed up with dense disdain What that fucker needs around his gools Is an Alsation (or Great Dane) Alsation or Great Dane! Alsation or Great Dane!?Y es one of those clamped round his balls Might help him understand our pain. But whats the point in blaming Fianna Fail? We dug ourselves our own hole. We filled ourselves that inept Dail, We scored that fucking own goal. We had the chance to protest, oh, To riot, go insane! Instead well, I think you know. Hesitation once again. Hesitation once again Frustration once again Why is Ireland only happy in Stagnation once again? And as job loss flows like a river of blood And Ireland gets anaemic You might, rather than stem the flood, Want to jump into the Lee, quick. But wait, just hear what I contest To keep us in the food chain! Ive written to England to suggest Plantation once again Plantation once again! Plantation once again! We tried, we failed, we cant be trusted with this nation once again. Tweet
