For my next username, I will be your worst nightmare...

Bada bada bada bada bada bada bada

Gather round ye lads and lasses set ye for a while

And harken to me mournful about the Emerald Isle

Let’s all raise our glasses high to friends and family gone

And lift our voices in another Irish drinking song

Sure it's a calming notion, perpetual in motion
But I don't need the comfort of any lies
For I have seen the ending and there is no ascending
Rise
Oh, back when I was younger, was told by other youngsters
That my end will be torture beneath the earth
'Cause I don't see what they see, when death is staring at me
I see a window, a limit, to live it, or not at all
If you could pull the lever to carry on forever
Would your life even matter anymore?
Sure it's a calming notion, perpetual in motion
But it's not what you signed up for
I'm sure there won't always be sunshine
But there's this momentary beam of light
You don't have to wait those salty decades
To get through the gate, it's all in front of your face
I'm sure there won't always be sunshine
I'm sure there won't always be sunshine
But there's this momentary beam of light
I could cross the ocean in a fit of devotion
For every shining second, this fragile body beckons
You think you're owed it better believing ancient letters
Sure it's a calming notion, but it's a lie...

Gather 'round ye lads and lasses, set ye for a while
And harken to me mournful tale about the Emerald Isle
Let's all raise our glasses high to friends and family gone
And lift our voices in another Irish drinkin' song
Consumption took me mother and me father got the pox
Me brother drank the whiskey 'till he wound up in a box
Me other brother in the Troubles met with his demise
Me sister has forever closed her smilin' Irish eyes
Now everybody's died, so until our tears are dried
We'll drink and drink and drink and drink
And then we'll drink some more
We'll dance and sing and fight until the early mornin' light
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Ken he was killed in Kilkenny and Claire she died in Clare
Tip from Tipperary died out in the Derry air
Shannon jumped into the river Shannon back in June
Ernie fell into the Erne and Tom is in the Toome
"Cleanliness is godliness, " me Uncle Pat would sing
He broke his neck a-slippin' on a bar of Irish Spring
O'Grady he was eighty though his bride was just a pup
He died upon the honeymoon when she got his Irish up (hey!)
Now everybody's died, so until our tears are dried
We'll drink and drink and drink and drink
And then we'll drink some more
We'll dance and sing and fight until the early mornin' light
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Joe Murphy fought with Reilly near the cliffs of Alderney
He took out his shillelagh and he stabbed him in the spleen
When Crazy Uncle Michael thought he was a leprechaun
But in fact he's just a leper and his arms and legs are gone
When Timmy Johnson broke his neck it was a cryin' shame
He wasn't really Irish, but he went to Notre Dame
MacNamara crossed the street and by a bus was hit
But he was just a Scotsman so nobody gave a sh- (ach!)
Now everybody's died, so until our tears are dried
We'll drink and drink and drink and drink
And then we'll drink some more
We'll dance and sing and fight until the early mornin' light
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Ole!
Me drunken Uncle Brendan tried to drive home from the bar
The road rose up to meet him when he fell out of his car
Irony was what befell me Great Grand Uncle Sam
He choked upon the very last potato in the land
Connor lived in Ulster town, he used to smuggle arms
Until the British killed him and cut off his lucky charms
And dear old Father Flanagan who left the Lord's employ
Drunk on sacramental wine beneath the altar boy (h

ey!)
Now everybody's died, so until our tears are dried
We'll drink and drink and drink and drink
And then we'll drink some more
We'll dance and sing and fight until the early mornin' light
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Someday soon I'll leave this world of pain and toil and sin
The Lord will take me by the hand to join all of me kin
Me only wish is when the Saviour comes for me and you
He kills the cast of Riverdance and Michael Flatley too
Now everybody's died, so until our tears are dried
We'll drink and drink and drink and drink
And then we'll drink some more
We'll dance and sing and fight until the early mornin' light
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up
And then go drinkin' once again
