Here's to the girls who say they will
Here's to the girls who say they won't
But to hell with the girls who say they will
and later you find out they don't.

Here's to the ones who say they will,
Here's to the ones who say they won't
And here's to the ones who say they will but
When you get them alone they don't.

Here's to the world as round as a wheel
That all must feel,
If this life were a thing that you could buy,
The Jews would all live while the Irish would die.

Irish Blessing
An Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And Grains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.

Tongue Twister
Theopolis Thistledown, the successful Thistle Sifter,
In sifting a sieve full of unsifted thistles,
Thrust three thousand thistles
Through the thick of his thumb
If, then, Theopolis Thistledown,
The successful thistle sifter,
In sifting a sieve of unsifted thistles,
Thrust these thousand thistles
Through the thick of his thumb,
See that though, in sifting a sieve of unsifted thistles,
Does not get the thistles stuck in thy tongue.
