From the austerity
Of the Monastery
Every loving day
Crew cut crossing
The Corrib
To third class
And he was fiery
And we loved him
Because he was fair
The Principal wanted
A choir
And we were all
Auditioned and I was
Rejected
But Brother Claver said
Try him again
And I was so proud
That someone would stand
Up for me
Everyone wants
To get picked for something
I got picked
For the choir that day
And after that for the band
And as if he had come
Only for that
Brother Claver slammed
All the windows shut
One day
In a flaming row
With Brother Cuthbert
And we never saw him
Again
