Mick Brady: Lyrics

Destination Paris, Stade de France, St Denis

Trapattoni's Army, the place was a sea green

A flukey goal in Croker left us one-nil down

There we were in Paris – Oh the boys were back in town

 

Thierry what's the story, that goal was just a farce

All we wanted was a replay so we'd sort it on the park

You said you didn't mean it but our fate was in your hands

Shoulda given us replay, 'cos you owed it to the fans

 

The boys in green, they got stuck in

Put the pressure on Les Blues

Robbie stuck it in the net, oh the place was like A zoo

Here we come Johannesburg, South Africa or bust

But Thierry's handpass to Liam Og Gallas, so it's Courtown for us

 

From Athenry to Ballyheigue, from Tallaght to Tralee

The Twitter and The Facebook, the whole wide world's agreed

We were cheated, we were diddled, we were shafted

We woz robbed

Shoulda given us a replay so we'd finish off the job
