Rock on Rock All |
| The empire is finished no foreign lands to seize |
| And the greedy eyes of England are looking towards the seas |
| Two hundred miles from Donegal, there’s a place that’s called Rockall |
| And the groping hands of England are grabbing at its walls |
| Oh rock on Rockall, you’ll never fall to Britain’s greedy hands |
| Or you’ll meet the same resistance that you did in many lands |
| May the seagulls rise and pluck your eyes and the water crush your shell |
| And the natural gas will burn your ass and blow you all to hell |
| For this rock is part of Ireland, 'cos it' s written in folklore |
| That Fionn MacCumhaill took a sod of grass and he threw it to the fore |
| Then he tossed a pebble across the sea, where ever it did fall |
| For the sod became the Isle of Man and the pebble’s called Rockall |
| Oh rock on Rockall, you’ll never fall to Britain’s greedy hands |
| Or you’ll meet the same resistance that you did in many lands |
| May the seagulls rise and pluck your eyes and the water crush your shell |
| And the natural gas will burn your ass and blow you all to hell |
| Now the seas will not be silent, while Britannia rules the waves |
| And remember that the Irish will no longer be your slaves |
| Remember to Britannia, well, — you rule the waves no more |
| So keep your hands off Rockall — it’s Irish to the core |
| Oh rock on Rockall, you’ll never fall to Britain’s greedy hands |
| Or you’ll meet the same resistance that you did in many lands |
| May the seagulls rise and pluck your eyes and the water crush your shell |
| And the natural gas will burn your ass and blow you all to hell |
| Oh rock on Rockall, you’ll never fall |
