I'll basement this later.
On the radio the other day they were taking the piss out of our rapidly collapsing "government" and someone suggested a song title for our seriously obese minister for health Mary "piggy" Harney - "Nelly the Elephant" became "Harney the Elephant".
So I slapped together a few lyrics;
HARNEY THE ELEPHANT.
From Ireland
A country left in Shame
There was a government elephant
And Harney was her name
One dark night
She grabbed her seven chins
And off she ran to Burger King
And was never seen again
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... [sound of pig squealing]
Harney the Elephant scoffed her lunch
And said goodbye to the Biffo*
Off she went with her big fat rump
rump, rump, rump
Harney the Elephant packed her trunk
And trundled back to McDonalds
Off she went with her big fat rump
rump, rump, rump
Year by Year
She’d danced to the Cowan band
When Harney was ruining the HSE
She looked so proud and grand
No more pies
For Harney to freeload
They thought she had eaten a cow
When her fat ass hit the road
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... [sound of pig squealing]
Harney the Elephant scoffed her lunch
And said goodbye to the Biffo
Off she went with her big fat rump
rump, rump, rump
Harney the Elephant packed her trunk
And trundled back to McDonalds
Off she went with her big fat rump
rump, rump, rump
*For any interested/bemused/confused Engerlish punters "Biffo" is what the media here call our prime minister. Stands for Big Ignorant Fucker From Offaly!

The HSE is our fucked up health service where people die waiting for operations even though we still have a scumbag land developer running around free still doing business even though he owes the banks €42 million he has admitted he cannot repay. Ever.
Oh and lads, David Drumm (the guy on the run in America after walking away with €8 million of Anglo Irish Bank money that we are all having to repay?) He was a good mate of mine for about 15 years. Straight up. Long term drinking buddy. Wouldn't piss on the theiving bastard now if he was on fire.

Did someone say "banana republic"?
