So I was in Galway over the weekend with my wife and parents. Lovely city btw everyone should go there, especially if you like fish. Any road, dad bought a CD which featured the best 18th century poem ever. I'm putting it in LJ cut tags as you'll see why when you read it. They were a lot more innocent back then ;).



Johnie Lad, Cock Up Your Beaver

When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town,
He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown;
But now he has gotten a hat and a feather,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush,
We'll over the border, and gie them a brush;
There's somebody there we'll teach better behaviour,
Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!


P.S. Kenneth Clarke for Tory leader! We need some fun back in British politics.
