IRISHMAN IRISHMAN

Irishman, Irishman. How to you drink?

Out of a trough or out of a sink!

 

Irishman, Irishman. How to you puke?

The same, down a drain, which I then strain into a pint.

 

Irishman, Irishman. How is your wife?

In bed with a horse, tending to her lice.

 

Irishman, Irishman. How will you die?

Cirrhosis, a broken heart, or a bloody pub fight.

 

Irishman! Drinking from a garbage can!*

 

*This part is meant to be sung.
