Dáil Musical in honour of Olli Rehn

The Star of the Show

This year's Dáil musical will be the Charles Dickens classic 'Oliver's Twist' in respect of Olli Rehn's recent visit to our fair isle. Brian Lenihan has been heard rehearsing his contribution 'You've got to pick a pocket or two' in his office after cabinet meetings recently.

Mr.Lenihan will sing
 'You've gotta pick a pocket or two'

Minister for Agriculture Brendan Smith looked very agitated in the corridor the other day seeking Mary Ó Rourke's advice on whether he was in key or not - he was performing his rendition of 'Food Glorious Food' - no doubt referring to the 53 tonnes of free cheese the Government plans to distribute before Christmas.

There will be other notable performers such as Minister Harney who was obviously practicing "As long as he needs me" by herself in the corner of the Dáil bar while an Taoiseach was belting out a version of "Who will buy" in the early hours in the same drink hole. He didn't seem to lack in confidence.

It was difficult for a second to make out what John Gormley and Mary Coughlan were singing, both as usual were out of tune with one another and were also out of time singing "I'd do anything". Lastly, it nearly brought a tear to my eye when I went to relieve myself and i heard Dan Boyle in a toilet cubicle reluctantly singing "Boy for sale". He must have been tweeting at the same time or something because it seemed his mind wasn't on the job at hand and I'm almost sure he was sobbing.

The full cast in no particular order...

With people like this in our parliment, is it any wonder the country is up shit creek? Ní cheapfainn é!

Once upon a time in a land called Ireland

Me, Minister Carey & Liam Mulvihill

Once upon a time, in a land called Ireland. Green turned to grim, our economy was flopping. Biffo's, Green gos, Nama's & Quangos, Endas, Eamos & credit rating droppings. Bailouts, pay cuts, Levy's & pensions, Norris in the Park all kinds of sexual tensions.

Disclaimer-I don't know who this is

Losing our jobs, losing our money, losing our heads - not one bit funny. A dhaoine uaisle, tis the way we are, us Irish love a good moan and a jar. Be it election or morning congestion, forget the blame or those dirty big bankers. Take the pain, see our leaders get fatter, sure we'll be ok as they lived happily ever after!
