"This is not strictly an original song, but we like to take existing songs and mess around with them. In this case we took the song Bad Guy by Billie Eilish, a really fun rhythm and sound to play, and rewrote the lyrics to describe ourselves... for the breakdown at the end we decided to play the trad tune Zito the Bubbleman over the top. I don't know why, it just works!"

Bad Craic
You think you know how this one goes
But we keep you on your tippy-toes
What we are doing no-one knows
Are we just criminal?
We do things like this all the time
Rewrite the lyrics and the rhymes
You might think that it's asinine
Don't be so cynical!
'Cause we're The Craic Horse
Don't really know jack, horse
Drink pints o' the black, horse
To make up what we lack, horse
Yeah, we're The Craic Horse
Mess up your favourite tracks, horse
Guess it's just a knack, horse
But we don't give a frack, horse....
We're The Craic Horse.... duh!
Never really quite in control
Playing with all our heart and soul
Our sum parts make a greater whole
It's quite a punch we pack!
We love it when you sing along
Even when you don't know the song
Who cares if we get lyrics wrong?
It's all about the craic!
'Cause we're The Craic Horse
Don't really know jack, horse
Drink pints o' the black, horse
To make up what we lack, horse
Yeah, we're The Craic Horse
Mess up your favourite tracks, horse
Guess it's just a knack, horse
But we don't give a frack, horse....
We're The Craic Horse.... duh!
