Irish Stew.
How to make an Irish stew,
This secret is known but to only a few.
Take some shamrocks, must be green,
Soak in a jug of Irish Potheen.
Take some apples or should it be pears?
Hide them under the kitchen stairs.
A pinch of salt with barley malt,
Two sticks of celery, one long one short.
Take a big pot to mix the lot in,
Give it a snort of pure Dutch gin.
Slowly boil till it smells just right,
Then throw it away in the middle of the night.
Now if you do just as I say,
You can eat Irish stew from September to May.
