How magical, how devious the plan
Discovering the fabled pot of gold
That sinister and sneaky little man
Outwitted by the whiskey he was sold
The leprechaun revealed it, in a rhyme
I spied him, singing, drinking, up a tree
A perfect day, a priceless, perfect crime
The Irish luck has smiled, at last, on me
The hole is very dark and very deep
It’s raining, but of course that’s what I need
And as the rainbow touches down, I leap
Above, a voice commends me on my greed
“You’ve found the pot, of that you can be sure
You’re in my shit. That’s leprechaun manure”
