Victoria
| Brian O'Higgins |

| The lion and the unicorn were fighting for the crown, Then up spoke the Irish Cheddar and they both came tumbling down The second George departed too, from Stephen�s Green in town, And they�re coming for YOU, Victoria! Victoria, they�re coming for you soon, Victoria, it may be when the moon Is shining on December frost or on the flowers of June But they�re coming for YOU, Victoria! A �gas-main� burst in Belfast on the eve of Poppy Day, And loyal doors, and windows too, blew rapidly away. Came the dawn in Dublin, and the naughty so they say Sent a message to the Castle for Victoria. Georgie lost the seat he had; king Billy lost his head; The lion lost his balance and the unicorn has fled, And as sure as you�re a stumpy humpty bumpy lump of lead They�ll be coming for YOU, Victoria. Nelson�s weather eye, they say, is looking out for squalls; They�re nervous in the Phoenix Park and round old Dublin�s walls But whosoever keeps his place and whosoever falls, They�ve a double date with YOU, Victoria !!!
