#An Irish Pub Song

[jack-of-folk]

An Irish Pub Song by The Rumjacks a Australian band making Irish-Folk-Rock-Punk

[theoutcastrogue]

Ah, the Athens equivalent is innovatively called "The James Joyce Irish Pub".

These are not like the rowdy bars the Rumjacks rightfully roasted to hell and back, they're a lot more chill, generally designed for foreign tourists (except Irish people, probably: they're not Paddy traps, but at least in Europe they're Yankee traps), they boast a lot of wooden surfaces and a lot of dad rock, and once in a while, if you're very lucky, you'll hear a Pogues or Dubliners song.

I've been in four of these IIRC: Athens, Paris, Lublin, New York. And they all looked like they came out of the same factory line, it's truly impressive.

The Rumjacks - An Irish Pub Song

There's a county map to go on the wall A hurling stick and a shinty ball The bric, the brac, the craic and all Let's call it an Irish pub Caffreys, Harp, Kilkenny on tap The Guinness pie and that cabbage crap The ideal wannabee Paddy trap We'll call it an Irish pub

Whale, oil, beef, hooked! I swear upon the holy book The only 'craic' you'll get is a slap in the ear Whale, oil, beef, hooked! I'll up and burst yer filthy mug If you draw one more shamrock in me beer!

We'll raise the price o' beer a dollar We'll make em wear a shirt and collar We'll fly a bloody tri-colour And call it an Irish pub Jägerbombs and double shots The underagers think it's tops We'll spike the drinks and pay the cops We got us an Irish pub

The quick one in the filthy bog The partin' glass across the lug O' the lady-O, the dirty dog We got us an Irish pub It's over to me and over to you We'll skip along the Avenue And who t'hell is Ronnie Drew? We got us an Irish pub

Plasma screens and neon lights Kara-farkin-oke nights The bouncers they can pick the fights We'll call it an Irish pub Plastic cups, a polished floor We'll hose the blood right out the door And let the knucklers back for more We got us an Irish pub

Oh top o' the mornin', Garryowen Kiss me I'm Irish, Molly Malone Fáilte, sláinte, póg mo thóin We got us an Irish pub Spike the punch and strip the willow Strike me up the rakes o' Mallow The Liffey never ran so shallow We got us an Irish pub

Never thought while in Rome I would be at an Irish pub drinking Danish beer, Kentucky Bourbon, and Japanese whisky while Lynrd Skynrd, Queen, Springstein, and Elvis music played. What would Cato the Elder think!?

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" whispered the Beerix.

"Your communicator doesn't have service on Earth and my phone is dead. I need to charge it somewhere and this is the closest place that won't ID us." the human looked through the window into the crowded pub searching for an outlet.

"Just...hood up, hat pulled down, and stay close to me." she whispered as they reached the front of line.

"How do you know they won't ID us-?"

"Two people? Alright, come on in!" smiles the doorman.

The human and beerix walk in and are hit with body heat, loud music, dozens of loud voices, and a wave of bodies.

"Told you, now come on, there's an outlet over there."

Pushing and shoving their way through the crow the duo makes it to the back of the pub where a table and some stools are. Quickly the human takes out a charger and plugs in her phone.

"Great, now we just need to wait."

"For how long?"

"At least 10 minutes so we'll make it to the nearest base."

"I hate it here. It's loud and...smelly." wrinkles the beerix's snout.

"I know...here I'll buy you something to eat. Want a drink too?"

"...fine. Just be quick."

"Alright, remember, hoo-"

"Hood up, hat pulled down, yeah yeah I know Kim, you only told me a hundred times tonight."

"...sorry, I'll get you that food and drink!"

He watched as his friend disappeared into the crowd and huddled into chair. Every couple of seconds he checked the phone hoping that'd it'd miraculously be fully charged so they could go.

"Come to Earth they said, it'll be fun they said...why couldn't we just have stayed on the ship and go to the new year's party like usual?"

"Excuse me mate? Can we sit here?" he whipped his head up to see three humans standing before him.

"Uh..."

"It's just that there's no where ta sit and it looks like it's just you and friend so could we?"

"...sure." he forced out knowing it'd draw more attention to say no and that more people would just ask this very same question later.

"Thanks mate! I'm Arty, this is Celia, and this is Sean. What's your name?"

"...Quip."

"I love that name! And your hat! It's so gorgeous, where'd you buy it?"

"Oh my god Celia look at his eyes! They're shiny like...like flashlights."

"Don't mind them, they're a bit drunk right now." Laughed Arty.

"No worries..."

"Real nice hat though, never seen a design like before."

"Thanks...it's foreign."

"From where???" lean in the two Irish.

"Knock it off you two or I'll knock some sense into you."

"I...it's from..."

"Sweden! Hi nice to meet you, I'm Kim. Got you fries and a Guinness." she slides over to her friend.

"Oh lovely choice! They got great Guinness here!"

"I know, got one for myself."

The three Irish began to talk amongst themselves while Quip grabbed the attention of his friend and crewmate.

"We gotta go, now." he hissed.

"We can't until finishing our food and drinks, leaving without doing so would raise suspicion." she whispers back smiling at the three other humans.

"Two of them are drunk and the sober one wouldn't care."

"Maybe or maybe he would since as the only sober one he's on high alert right now. Besides I only have 8%. We need to wait now drink your Guinness and eat your fries."

"...you didn't even get one of those tiny drinks I like."

"Those are shots and this will last longer and tastes better."

"Better..."

[Four Guinness later]

"HE WAS A SKATER BOY SHE SAID SEE YOU LATER BOY, HE WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER!

SHE HAD A PRETTY FACE BUT HER HEAD WAS UP IN SPACE, SHE NEEDED TO COME BACK TO EAARRTH!!" screamed Quip, Celia and Sean, the three drunkenly dancing and singing to the song playing in the pub. Somehow Quip's hat ended up on Celia along with his hood on Sean, his pointed ears, snout and grey skin out for everyone to see.

"I can't believe how good your friend's cosplay is."

"I know...he loves Dragon Ball." smiles Kim thankful that Celia thought Quip said he was Beerus instead of Beerix.

"Yeah killer Beerus cosplay, too bad he couldn't get purple paint though."

"MATE HOW DO YOU NOT KNUR DIS ONE?!"

"I KNOW IT NOW!"

"OI SHUDDUP IT'S THE BESHT PART!"

"CAUSE I'M JUST A TEENAGE DIRTBAG BABY! YEAH I'M JUST A TEENAGE DIRTBAG BABY! LISTEN TO IRON MAIDEN BABY!!"

Kim laughed as she watched her friend continue to poorly sing to the songs her and most of everyone else here grew up with.

"Quip! Quip! it's time to go!"

"Don't wanna! It's fun here!"

"Quip, Kal and Glip are probably worried about you! My phone is charged up, let's go!"

"Nooo!"

"Aw listen, listen to your friend mate, gotta get home to your family..."

"Yeah, don't wanna worry 'em. My girlfriend would call tha police if I didn't check in with her..."

After some more coaxing from Sean and Celia, Quip finally gave in and followed Kim out of the pub.

A phone call and bus ride later the two were soon reunited with the rest of their crew and soon went back to their ship.

Tomorrow Quip will be banned from drinking for 3 months by his partners and the Captain as he was trending on social media due to Celia and Sean posting the selfies and videos they took with him...which he drunkenly agreed to while his hat and hood were down.

For the rest of the month #IrishBeerus was a popular post.

September 2nd - Don't call me your cowboy

It’s September 2nd, 2024; We have an original country song for our Country Music lovers today. Per the song, “When I’m under the stars, I wonder how you are. I’m breaking your reigns. I’m not wearing your brand. So, don’t call me your cowboy anymore.” This original song was produced by a different music studio (no, Richard doesn’t recall which one), but we are happy with it. Let us know what you…

[possibly-a-table-or-just-gay]

"Whiskey in the Jar" with the Dubliners and the Pogues

"Whiskey in the Jar" is a famous Irish traditional song, set in the southern mountains of Ireland, the tale of a highwayman who, after robbing a military or government official, is betrayed by a woman, and is one of the most widely performed traditional Irish songs. It has been recorded by numerous professional artists since the 1950s. http://thisdrinkinglife.com/hell-raiser-7-shane-macgowan/
