I Be A Leprechaun (Silver)

Though I be short
not so very tall,
damn those that laugh
make fun, 'cause I be small.

I be hoppin' through the shamrocks
me knickers ride up me bum,
they giggle and laugh their heads off
treat me like I were dumb.

I be a leprechaun
I be so proud of that,
nice ta say, "Top o' the mornin' ta ya,"
and kindly tip me hat.

I be a leprechaun
stuck ta it like glue,
keepin' me po' o' gold safe
from people just like you.

    What a charming little guy. "Top of the morning to ya" That is exactly what you'd expect a lepracaun to say isnt it?

    Yes lassie ye be late, the shamrocks have done wilted and the gold, wee hobbits done took it for a dram of ale.

    No idea what I just said.

    If you be a leprechaun, I must hide me lucky charms...they're magically delicious...sorry, I lived my youth in front of the television.

    I wish I had a pot of gold...or a bowl of Lucky Charms cereal...I'm easy to please.

    You're silly, yay, goofs love company!
