The Liar (Live at the National Concert Hall)

I was born about ten thousand years ago

In Banmullet in the county of Mayo

It was me that chased the vermin

While St. Patrick preached a sermon

And I'll whoop the man that says it isn't so

Singing right full tooralally tooralally

There is no one who can tell a lie like me

You can search until you tire

You won't find a bigger liar

I've been lying since the dawn of history

With King Billy at the Boyne I heard him call

On his followers to follow till they fall

Then he says we'll win quite easily

And we'll canonize young Paisley

And he up and sang a verse of Dirty's Walls

Singing right full tooralally tooralally

There is no one who can tell a lie like me

You can search until you tire

You won't find a bigger liar

I've been lying since the dawn of history

It was during World War II I met them all

There was Roosevelt and Churchill and De Gaulle

And one day I nearly fainted

I was having my house painted

There was Hitler hanging paper in the hall

Singing right full tooralally tooralally

There is no one who can tell a lie like me

You can search until you tire

You won't find a bigger liar

I've been lying since the dawn of history
