Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I thought in honor of the day, I'd post a little Irish ditty I wrote (tongue-in-cheek) back in High School. It's to be sung with that standard Irish song music. Now why I can't remember the name of the guy in the cube next to me, but I can remember a song I wrote 45 years ago is a mystery to me, but here it is:

On St. Patrick's Day
if I had me way
All the colors would be red
For I'm sick of green
if you know what I mean
I wish it was red, instead!


For, green is obscene
Its a school latrine
It's a cheap, plastic 10 cent pen
It's boogers and vomit
and '63 Comets
and the skin of Martian men.

So, let's make it red
or pink instead
or yellow, black or blue
and I'll lead the parade
with Shamrocks I made
with brown tissue paper for you!
