lyrics

Look to the left, look to the right;
Everyone's spoiling for a fight.
Kneejerk with a rubber stamp;
Spit and swagger in either camp.
Slow to listen, quick to speak,
Never turn the other cheek,
Ignore the plank within your eye,
Never ask the question why...

The boys have gone the knuckle again,
Soon after they went drinking.
If you can do the hullaballoo,
It saves us all from thinking.

Turn off the grace, turn up the snark,
Add the conscience of a shark;
Lay the boots, go to town,
Beat the brow and shout them down.
Plug the ears and clench the fists,
This is jackboot politics:
Throwing shapes, splitting hairs,
Saving face while bashing theirs...

The boys have gone the knuckle again,
Soon after they went drinking.
If you can do the hullaballoo,
It saves us all from thinking.

“You're in the wrong; I'm in the right!”
So act the maggot and start the fight.
Point the finger, puff the chest,
Critical thinking is suppressed.
Lock your step with Party lines,
Shut your eyes, ignore the signs.
Repeat the mantra of Us and Them,
Circle the wagons and sing it again...

The boys have gone the knuckle again,
Soon after they went drinking.
If you can do the hullaballoo,
It saves us all from thinking.

Mighty McGuiggans image

Mighty McGuiggans Fort Wayne, Indiana

The Mighty McGuiggans combine lively Irish fun with originals, plus tunes from the likes of Flogging Molly, The Pogues, Dropkick Murphys, etc.

Gritty, real and beautiful, like a single malt scotch or a fine stout. Raucous drinking songs, beautiful ballads, hilarious songs that tell a story, & some pirate tunes to boot!

Every day is almost St. Paddy's Day! ... more
