And they say that the English are arrogant. Still, well done Breezy on your lot coming 4th.

Well done The Irish.
If Scotland can't do it (although I've seen them do it twice)I don't grudge our celtic friends their chance to celebrate - but when did the Irish ever need an excuse for a celebration?

Tune: Irish Washerwoman (I Think), at least it's the one used for "Mactavish is dead!'

Irish Grand Slam 2009

Oh there's Ronan O'Gara, there's Horan, O'Connell,
O'Callaghan, Flannery, Hayes & O'Driscoll.
We're out on the beer & we don't give a damn
'Cos we're all celebrating an Irish Grand Slam

There's Ferris and Heaslip, There's Wallace, O'Leary;
There's D'Arcy & Murphy; There's Bowe & there's Leamy
We'll sing and we'll dance and we'll raise a few beers
For a feat we've not managed for 61 years

There's Kearney, Best, Court & Fitzgerald the winger,
Another O'Driscol & Wallace; there's Stringer
We'll tell the French boys we're the cream duh lah cream
And we're booking some space in this year's Lions team.
