1
If you had the luck of the Irish
2
You'd be sorry and wish you were dead
3
You should have the luck of the Irish
4
And you'd wish you was English instead!
5
A thousand years of torture and hunger
6
Drove the people away from their land
7
A land full of beauty and wonder
8
Was raped by the British brigands! Goddamn! Goddamn!
9
If you could keep voices like flowers
10
There'd be shamrock all over the world
11
If you could drink dreams like Irish streams
12
Then the world would be high as the mountain of morn
13
In the 'Pool they told us the story
14
How the English divided the land
15
Of the pain, the death and the glory
16
And the poets of Auld Ireland
17
If we could make chains with the morning dew
18
The world would be like Galway Bay
19
Let's walk over rainbows like leprechauns
20
The world would be one big Blarney stone
21
Why the hell are the English there anyway?
22
As they kill with God on their side
23
Blame it all on the kids the IRA
24
As the bastards commit genocide! Aye! Aye! Genocide!
25
If you had the luck of the Irish
26
You'd be sorry and wish you was dead
27
You should have the luck of the Irish
28
And you'd wish you was English instead!
29
Yes you'd wish you was English instead!
