lyrics

Verse 1. With a wink and a grin they fill us with shit.
It's all that spews from their gobs. Slithering along the campaign trail, plenty of snakes still in Ireland and they're telling tall tales.
Yes they're ll the rage. Welcome to Dáil bar it's election night and the real punks are out yes the real punks are out.
There's Joan Burton wearing a Joy Division T-shirt, she hopes her pleasures remain unknown.
She's drinking piss from a slipper, they say nothing lasts forever.
Then they've clearly never tried to have a wank to her picture.
I'm pure mortified, I'm pure mortified, I'm not mortified.
Chorus: At the post punk election party in a country that has no use for an army. At the post punk election party it's enough to drive the whole place barmy at the post punk election party.
Verse 2. Look there's Enda on the dancefloor and he's shifting the face off Varadker in their own recovery position, their own recovery position. Come Friday will they be so in love will they find the housing crisis cure what makes it so obscure I'm not so sure.
Just grab the hospital beds that you found in a skip, unlock the ghost estates and let the homeless move in X2 For your sins.
We were shot by both sides when Labour arrived they stole all of Fianna Fáil's best smiles.
There's Willie O'Dea jumping up and down on the parish pump his public image is staring down a pistol, give me some wisdom.
Willie give me some wisdom. I'll see you at my funeral. Look sexy at my funeral.
Michael Noonan grins like a dog with two mickeys. He's sporting a new mohawk wig.
He once fed five thousand peasants from the back of a skip. We owe him a living his pensions not so giving.
We're the pennys to his ignorance. He oinks with beligerence and sticks muck in his ears.
He'll never hear you scream X3 Chorus: as before.
Verse 3. Gerry Adams scream I wasn't a terrorist look that joke isn't funny anymore. Can you stand this heat, do you need relief,
Oh the north is such a chore. Let the Gardaí come and arrest me, their merely Fine Gael's security firm.
Follow them around like a pack of hounds their just as scared as you or me of death sanctions, overflowing embankments, regeneration encampments, water rates and budget cuts.
We're all prostitutes in Dennis O'Brien's eyes he lurks in the shadows sharpening his knives.
We're the cracks in the pavement of their silk road. Hurdles they jump to keep their greed afloat. A PPS number a statistic they bought and sold setting us budgets that cripple and enslave the gap of Dunloe couldn't hold our rage. A hundred years since the rising alas a new dawn is shining. Heroes of 16 forever live on and on. They fought for our rights they fought their lives they fought for your rights. Chorus: as before Outro: Jan take the fall witch trials for all. Labour but a name shame on you all X4
