Ireland’s Euros Dream
Verse1
[Martin]
Keano, when I met you first had no beard
When you grew it out the Germans were so scared
So when we beat them 1-0
I knew there was something fantastic going on
Verse2
[Keano]
When i saw the draw i nearly shat me pants
Italy, Belgium and Sweden here in France
But we’ve got bibs and balls (Martin: major progress)
This is nothing like Saipan
Prechorus
Eamon Dunphy’s right
[Dunphy]
That’s right baby, it requires dedication
The support of the entire nation
[Together]
We will win it together, ah ha
From Bono to McGregor, ah ha
(Bono: O’Neill is our Gandhi)
Chorus
[Together]
Ireland’s Euros Dream
That is what we are
With O’Neill and Keane
How can we go wrong?
Don’t say ‘cest la vie’
to the boys in green
‘cause we rely on each other, ah ha
From one corner to another, ah ha
Verse 3
[Martin]
England, Wales, The North and us, to France we’ll go
Sound of Scotland staying back to answer the phones
[Keano]
At the end of the day,
This could be the year for the real thing
(Bono: Even better than the real thing)
Verse 4
[Keano]
Seamie Coleman on the right flying up the wing (Seamie: Aye, Killybegs)
Robbie Brady on the left slinging crosses in (Robbie: Alright pal)
[Martin]
Absolutely fantastic guys,
but Keano what else do we have?
Prechorus
[Keano]
Well Martin, let me tell ya,
Jonny Walters’ arse (Walters: Take that Bastian)
And Shane Long’s guitar skills (Long: You’re my wonderwall)
Secret weapons
It’s how we’re gonna win big
[Together]
We’ll do it together, ah ha
From Bono to McGregor, ah ha
(McGregor: Zlatan is a bum)
Chorus
[Together]
Ireland’s Euros Dream
That is what we are
With O’Neill and Keane
How can we go wrong?
Don’t say ‘cest la vie’
to the boys in green
‘cause we rely on each other, ah ha
From one Paddy to another, ah ha
