(Song by Damien Dempsey)
Mary loves the Grouse
Hides the bottles round the house
She watches chatshows and the soaps
Broken-hearted but she copes
Michael's out of work
Feels he's sinking in the murk
He's unshaven and a mess
Fnds it hard some days to dress
Stevie smashed the delf
Cos he can't express himself
He's consumed by rage
Like his father at his age
Rita's little child
Has a lovely little smile
But this means nothing to her father
Because he's never even seen her
And we sing, sing all our cares away
And we live to fight another day
Joey's off the gear
He's been clean for half a year
He gets bored out of his mind
But he's trying to toe the line
Mary loves the Grouse
Hides the bottles round the house
She watches chatshows and the soaps
Broken-hearted but she copes
Michael's out of work
Feels he's sinking in the murk
He's unshaven and a mess
Fnds it hard some days to dress
Stevie smashed the delf
Cos he can't express himself
He's consumed by rage
Like his father at his age
Rita's little child
Has a lovely little smile
But this means nothing to her father
Because he's never even seen her
And we sing, sing all our cares away
And we live to fight another day
Joey's off the gear
He's been clean for half a year
He gets bored out of his mind
But he's trying to toe the line
