Kathleen’s Irish Song – Write A Song Wednesday [VIDEO]
Oh Kathleen - you are thee good sport. (i tried to sound Irish there, but I don't think it worked out). However, hopefully this song did!
It's Write A Song Wednesday, where the sky is definitely the limit in terms of what I am asked to do. This week someone called in and asked me to create Irish song using an Irish dialect. Others contributed with words that I had to include. And then finally a lady named Kathleen chimed in asking if I could make this specifically about her. Hey - no problem.
The random words that I had to fit in were the following:
leprechon
shilleleh
beer
castrating
propane
I was given an hour to create this. After 3 cups of coffee to jolt me awake, here was the end result. Lyrics follow the video
My name is Richie OPhillips
It's time to sing my song
bout a listener named Kathleen
an irish leprecon
Every decade or so she loses her temper
and she goes insane
and she explodes just than a match
thrown into a tank of propane
Kathleen's a real nice lady
but God forbid she hates ya
cuz if you get her mad enough
Kathleen said she would castrate ya
she has more Irish in her
than you have ever seen
she even owns a shileleh
whatever the hell that means
Kathleen loves retirement
she had a great career
she's happy home with her dog and cat
and sipping her once a year beer
So here's your song Kathleen
I hope you liked my choice
and if you don't I'm afraid
it might permanently change me voice
