Time to take out the bodhrans!

Throw all your cares away, it's time for Paddies day
From Montreal to Botany bay they celebrate Paddies day

Paddies day is, the festival of booze
Take the next day off work, cause you're gonna need a snooze

When you feel like the only kid in town,
whose name don't end with Stein
Here's a few more names that are Irish
Just like yours and mine

W.B. Yeats writes poetry sublime
then drinks with Kennath Brannagh who played Dr. Frankenstien
Guess who drink together from Dublin to Hong Kong
Roy Keane, Arthur Conan Doyle and mister Neil Armstrong

Van Morrison's Irish the Band Oasis too
But that's nothing, we've also got all four members of U2

The luck of the Irish must be in our sporting camps
Because we've got not one, not two, but three world snooker champs!

Put on the green beret it's time for paddies day,
Ronald Raegan in his day, celebrated paddies day

Oliver Cromwell, STILL not a mick!
But enough entertainers are to make you others sick!
Riverdance is Irish and we invented 'reel'
Mick Jaggar lives in Ireland and yes his lips are real

We've got Bram Stoker, and Mary Shelley too
put them both together and they'll scare the hell of you!

We've got that guy who made a car that runs on cooking oil
The web encryption standard was designed on Irish soil!

tell the guys in Notre Dame they're only Irish on paddies day
Our eyes are smiling anyway even when it's not paddies day
We have the best golf in the world so let's also have a caddies day
What's most important anyway is that leprachauns aren't real even on paddies day!
