More of a mantra than a song. I find singing it in times of stress to be most therapeutic.

JOE TUCK

Joe Tuck — he's on the motorway
Go truck — and he'll be on there today
Oh, fuck — he's always ready to rock

Joe Joe Joe Joe
Tuck Tuck Tuck

Joe Tuck — he's got a mobile café
Old muck — he's never open all day
Up chuck — because he eats all his stock

Joe Joe Joe Joe
Tuck Tuck Tuck

Joe Tuck — his life's a heady social whirl
Dead duck — but he never ever gets to meet girls
No luck — and they don't care about him
Joe Tuck

Joe Tuck — his hair's a mass of crazy curls
Dead duck — and you should see it when he gets it unfurl'd
No luck — but they don't care about him
Joe Tuck.

For Eamonn, on his eighth birthday. Happy Birthday, lovely boy.

Words & music: Eamonn Slade and Paul A Murphy.


Super Eamonn is really strong, 
he can handle tougher than a bomb
This is his birthday
and this is his song.

Oh yeah, he's so strong! 

Stopping bad guys from killing good guys
with his super powers oh yeah, he's so strong.
Today is his birthday
and nothing can go wrong.

Oh yeah, he's so strong!
 
 Eamonn Aloysius Philip Slade 
It's your birthday, let’s drink lemonade,
eat some cake and let’s have some fun.

Stick it up your bum
Stick it up your bum
Stick it up your bum
Stick it up your bum
Stick it up your bum
