Story Behind The Song

The melody combines the traditional Irish Kesh Jig with a sprightly political satire. The subject of the song: someone whose middle name is "Walker."

Song Description

The Walker Boy throws tantrums, never shares his toys, always wants his own way, and never apologizes or forgives. Who is he? The answer is apparent in the last verses.

Lyrics

1. When the Walker boy gets a snit,
We stop him 'fore he throws a fit
But give 'im a little, he just wants more, more, MORE and more!

2. When the Walker boy wants to play,
He takes the other kids' toys away
And slaps them in the face, FACE, oh, they hate him so!

CHORUS. Our Walker boy is much too free
I fear he'll be the death of me
God save us from the Walker boy!

3. When the Walker boy picks a fight,
You can never set things right,
He just wants to smash, BASH, trash and beat you down!

4. Our Walker boy is much too bold,
When he likes a thing, he grabs ahold,
And screams, "It's mine, mine, MINE, mine, MINE, all mine!"

CHORUS.

5. Our Walker boy is far too rude,
He's mean & dev'lish, shrewd & crude,
I wish he'd run away, FAR away, and never come back!

6. I wish I could adopt him out,
But who'd ever take the lout?
I think the Devil left him here and took th'other'n away!

CHORUS.

7. He goes to church every day,
But he never learned to pray,
How I wish he'd get struck by LIGHT-, light-, light-en-ing!



8. Our Walker boy is such a twit,
He doesn't even give a [rip],
The world could be ending, and he just doesn't care!

9. The Arctic ice is breaking up,
The global warming's frying us,
And Walker boy just sits back in his easy chair!


FINAL CHORUS. Our Walker boy is much too free
I think he'll be the death of me
God save us from the Walker boy!
