dustin the turkey - the ballad of eddie hobbs lyrics

[intro]
the people of ireland had no idea
what what going
where was all their money
and was going wrong
was it the euro changeover
or just a hole in their pockets
they one small man shouted
“here, boy, i’ve got it!”

[verse 1]
so we all turned to listen to the pale fella from cork
with a face like a hobbit and a suit from new york
but we all listened and learned and thought
maybe, just maybe he’s right
maybe it is time that we all put up a fight
“it’s a rip off republic,” said thе man, eddie hobbs
if you want to live herе, boy, you’re going to need three jobs
we all need to be cloned to have an extra arm and leg
and we’ll have to give up and settle for a semi+d two bed

[chorus]
it’s e+d+d+i+e h+o+b+b+s

[verse 2]
but tell me, eddie, is it true? are we really all being had?
has living in the emerald isle really got so bad?
we’re sure that ten years ago everything did cost much less
but we didn’t have paninis and we all drank orange cadet
“don’t be a langer”, said eddie, “sure we’re all being conned
and the government know full well just what’s going on
i’ve got harney on me back and cowan in me face
when all that i’m trying to do is highlight his disgrace”
[chorus]
it’s e+d+d+i+e h+o+b+b+s

[verse 3]
“i was thinking to meself,” says eddie to himself
“with me kind of fees i’m charging, i’ve got all the wealth”
so he decided to give something back to the people in this land
by going on tv and telling us all to make a stand
the cost of eating out is fierce and eating in no better
the price of seeing a doctor or a vet for your red setter
said eddie, “just think, before you’re giving all that cash
you’re paying fifty euro to have someone look at your rash”

[chorus]
it’s e+d+d+i+e h+o+b+b+s

[outro]
so just show him the money and he’ll show you where it’s going
the cost of everything’s rising and there’s no sign of it slowing
so if you want to buy a house, a car or just get sick
then you better not do it in this rip off republic
