He`s just a Plastic Paddy, singin` Plastic Paddy songs
in a Plastic Paddy pub that they call The Blarny Stone
There`s plastic shamrocks everywhere, there`s Guinness and green beer
And a sign in gaelic above the bar which says `God Bless All Here`
His guitar sounds like a wardrobe, and it`s out of tune at that
His singin` voice it ranges from a sharp to a flat
He`s just desecrated `The Holy Ground`, ripped apart `Black Velvet Band`
Sang some nights drunk and now he`s sunk `The Irish Rover` with all hands
`Cause he`s just a Plastic Paddy, singin` Plastic Paddy songs
in a Plastic Paddy pub that they call The Blarny Stone
The publican`s a proddy Scot by the name of McIntyre
Who does not allow collections for the men behind the wire
He`s done awful things to `Molly Malone` and `The Farrows of Tralee`
He`s murdered `Carach Fergus` and poor old `Mother Machree`
He`s just thrashed his way through `Galway Bay` and `The Wild Irish Rose`
and if he starts singing `Danny Boy`, I`m gonna punch him in the nose!
He`s just a Plastic Paddy, singin` Plastic Paddy songs
in a Plastic Paddy pub that they call The Blarny Stone
There`s Aer Lingus posters everywhere showing pretty Irish scenes
all peaceful and idyllic, and very bloody green!
`When Irish Eyes are Smiling` and `The Mountains of Mourne`
In a central Celtic chich, the man has left no stone unturned
`Til he embarks upon the harp that once through terraced halls
Accompanying himself on the Bodhrn, which takes a lot of courage
`Cause he`s just a Plastic Paddy, singin` Plastic Paddy songs
in a Plastic Paddy pub that they call The Blarny Stone
Now he`s just sung in his mother tongue, `The Ancient Irish Curse`
and cleared the pub completely by the forty-second verse!
`Cause he`s just a Plastic Paddy, singin` Plastic Paddy songs
He`s started singin` `Danny Boy`, so it`s time that I was gone
and just one thought comes to my mind, as I stagger through the door
Where are you when we need you, Christy Moore?
Where are you when we need you, Christy Moore?
