Airtricity

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 A flick of the switch and the season’s alight,
We’re caught in the glare of publicity.
Thank God we are back on the circuit tonight,
With Eircom replaced by Airtricity.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Watt a fine mess the close season has wrought,
Though no-one’s been charged with duplicity.
Who was at volt? Well nobody’s been caught
Or is current-ly up for complicity.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 We can’t remain static in dark, stormy weather
So what, if this means eccentricity?
AC or DC, we’re in this together,
This game that we love with simplicity.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 So socket it to me baby, let’s go hit the town
And escape all this drab domesticity.
Our ohms will be dark as we mosey on down
To savour the crowd’s electricity.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Yes, football is back and sure, who can resistor?
(As I said to my daughter Felicity)
The field is electric; this beautiful vista
Comes courtesy now of Airtricity.

Notes

Oh thank the Lord that real 3D football is back after a winter of nothing happening! The Eircom League is now the Airtricity League
