Keep those Loans a-Lending
"Keep those Loans a-Lending" sung by Mick Dunne at the Cle Club in the Flowing Tide Pub in Dublin on Thursday 13th October 2011. The theme on the night was "Songs of Workers' Struggle". This song is a modern twist on the famous workers' song "The Ballad of William Brown" or "Keep that Wheel a-Turning". The original warns of the dangers of over-production and how the worker ends up paying the price. The new version is about the over supply of credit during the Celtic Donkey years.
Lyrics:
Keep those Loans a-Lending
There was a man named Fitzpatrick
Said put all your money in mortar and brick
If you're under borrowed I'll see you right
Lending loans from morn to night
Chorus:
Keep those loans a-lending
Keep those loans a-lending
Keep those loans a-lending
And lend a little more each day
Fitzpatrick thought he could make a ton
Forty times in place of one
He loaned so much he soon was made
Lord High Loaner of his trade
The regulator never came
To ask Fitzpatrick, "What's your game?"
He doled it out hand over fist
The regulator must be drunk
When the nation heard of the wondrous plan
Of the sixty four million euro man
They borrowed money by the truck
And Fitzpatrick didn't give a damn
Fitzpatrick loaned with a wicked smile
His loan book grew to such a pile
He loaned so much to his builder mates
That now we're left with ghost estates
But sad the sequel was a curse
Coz one day the bubble burst
It only took a single prick
And his name was Fitzpatrick
