The Story starts in lovely eire, where gaa is king There lived two young pups and family in a frantic gaelic fling
The accountant and the teacher As they came to be known Will fill the room with mischief Of the kind that is homegrown
The early years were bedlam As they switched each others bed The anvil noise of clanging If you hit them on the head.
The accountant and the teacher Have a brother quiet and apart With all their raucous antics They could never be as smart
The accountant and the teacher Have a sister sweet as bread Despite their jealous teasing She was always a step ahead
The accountant and the teacher Have parents bold and strong Even through the years they claim They never thought them wrong
The accountant and the teacher Have a nana who is wise Many a nappy changed as They lay across her thighs
The accountant and the teacher Have girlfriends now it’s clear Their good sense is in question As they choose to keep them near
The accountant and the teacher Have a favourite uncle too Unfortunately he is not here His name was uncle Hugh
The accountant and the teacher Are now grown and mature In their own fields they flourish Though it smells of fresh manure
The accountant and the teacher It’s been fun through all the fuss Luckily we’ve been kind to you So you’ll have to be kind to us
The accountant and the teacher Are tired of this ditty They will that I cease and desist But I find this quite shitty
The accountant and the teacher Must one more stanza bear As I take my leave, an wipe my sleeve Run fingers through my hair
The accountant and the teacher Were walking hand in hand With loving gaze they kissed their rings In the sunset on Banna Strand
To the accountant and the teacher It’s been a fun filled journey We were with you then, we’re with you now From tralee to inesscourney We cherish you and treasure you With all our minds and heart May angels watch over you And never may we part.
