“Patriot Game” - The Dubliners

_Come all ye young rebels, and list while I sing,  
For the love of one’s country is a terrible thing.  
It banishes fear with the speed of a flame,  
And it makes us all part of the patriot game._

What can I say? I love a good ballad.

For some reason I’ve had the “Mahna Mahna” song from \*The Muppet Show \* in my head all day. I don’t mind - it’s quite a fun one to twitter along to.
