Lyrics: Gilbert Osullivan. Divorce Irish Style.

In answer to your question You've made a big mistake But in the eyes of God That's a risk you have to take Divorce Irish style Unless of course your privileged With a cardinal up your sleeve Hope of an annulment is Unlikely to succeed Divorce Irish style How can two people live together When they've fallen out of love Are we so blind As to reject the pain they fell What right has anyone to say you must Even God himself can't be the judge We've only one life after all And if it's not our fault Why can't we be released Something must be done And that something must be done urgently Forget it ever happened Go away and start anew You love each other surely Well at least you used to do Divorce Irish style How can two people live together When they've fallen out of love Are we so blind As to reject the pain they fell What right has anyone to say you must Even God himself can't be the judge We've only one life after all And if it's not our fault Why can't we be released Something must be done And that something must
be done urgently Think about the children After all they must come first Okay she's found another man Oh well it could be worse Divorce Irish style
