Was once a narcoleptic little town
Goleen
Goleen

Go-LEEN
Now they've got narcotics knocking round
There I was watching the news
I nearly fell out of my shoes
When I saw coke floating down near old Goleen
I jumped right into my old banger
Thinking that I'd be a langer
If I didn't try to salvage near Goleen
Goleen

It's the place to go for all the ceol and crack

A snort of the air down there and you won't look back
They say that Dublin's a party place
Hens and stags get off their face
But there's nothing that compares to old Goleen
It didn't used to be attractive
Til its seas became radioactive
Columbia's not a patch on our Goleen

I hear the diving schools are doing well

Souvenirs from a holiday there are a great sell
West Cork, it was a quiet spot
Distractions? There just weren't a lot
Unless your bodhràn broke, there was no tizzy.
But all that's changed now that the peelers
Are thrashing 'round down there for dealers
Goleen's just gotten very fucking busy
Goleen

The wind's capsizing boats coz it's been blustery
Goleen

Its coke is the last hope of our tourist industry.

I just wet meself laughing. Not a healthy thing to do at 8 am especially when in work. Don't think Dolly would be up for singing this one, would she now?
Ha ha! Brilliant! I'm crying into me cornflakes laughing.
I think that has to be recorded. With the tripe that gets into the charts these days, your effort is a definite for number one. We'll get old pencil head himself, Ryan "Tubbers" Tubridy, to plug it on air!
What, the gobshites thought that they put a light on the Fastnet because the black rock would look pretty with a huge-big-fuck-off candle, stuck on top of it. Cretins.
While I suspect you are correct, Barleycove will become the new Cannes. But we do not want stupid fucks in Connemara, best to keep all of them in one place.
You can have it as the Irish bloggers anthem and it should be sung at the awards cerermony.
How I've missed your songs, dear songstress.
Pah, beat ya by 32 years.
Our very exciting parents brought us to Barley Cove on holidays 11 years in a row.
And every single year, as we got close, the chorus would start from the back of the car "Goleen, Goleen, Goleen, Go-lee-e-een"
This was after listening for four hours to Dolly and Crystal Gale on tape.
Jeebus Conor, you were not alone. We thought we were the only ones!
Beautiful :-)
Its like "The Fast Show" "Heroin Galore" skit they did. And at one and a half million a bale, its worth your while bringing Fido for a walk along the beach.
*loud clapping ensues*
*more loud clapping with the odd WHOOP! thrown in ensues*
Fookin brilliant sweary, you have to record that! I've just pissed meself!!
Somehow I'm guessing that Bord Failte is going to pass on this one, Sweary. You're very clever at any rate.
*blushes*
I thought that was one of my worst offerings.
I'm booking my passage as I type.
Judging by the comments I am not the only person who sang that in my head as I read it!
Brilliant...
