the dubliners - the comical genius lyrics

o a comical genius was thinking one day
how he’d jack up his job and receive handy pay
he did not like begging and work was too hard
so he got a bright notion to join up the guard
diddly-i-dum diidly-i-dum diddly-i-dum dum day
well he went up to dublin, to the depot went in
got a new suit of blue as bright as new pins
they drilt him, they drilt him, they drilt him so hard
the old sergeant proclaimed him a full fledged guard
diddly-i-dum diidly-i-dum diddly-i-dum dum day
he was stationed somewhere near the town of athy
on the roads of the district he kept a close eye
the girls they admired him as all br-ssers do
fell in love with the guard and his new suit of blue
diddly-i-dum diidly-i-dum diddly-i-dum dum day
well the girls they would wink and they’d nod as he p-ssed
o but this itchy guard had his eye on one l-ss
and this little colleen, she being a die-hard
she made it quite clear that she wanted no guard
diddly-i-dum diidly-i-dum diddly-i-dum dum day
well one time while on duty on a cold winter’s night
sure he caught her out cycling without any light
where’s your light, miss? says he; for an answer says she
it’s next to me liver, where you’ll never be
diddly-i-dum diidly-i-dum diddly-i-dum dum day
