(Verse 1)

He said, "Mary is the rarest gem
And she?s the wildest flower.
I?ll make my Mary merrier
With every passing hour."

So I made a certain sacrifice
As soon as we were through
I said, "Your Mary loves you, lad."
And he said, "?Mary? who?"

(Chorus 1)

You don?t know if an apple?s rotten
?Til you take a bite
You don?t know if there?s breakfast comin?
?Til you spend the night

And I?m sure I?ll kiss my share of frogs
Before my time is done
The world is full of bastards
And I?ve dated every one

(Verse 2)

Eh, the lad was oh-so-generous
Much more than you would think
He didn?t have a license
But he still drove me to drink

And I had no insecurities
So he gave me some of his
But I didn?t need his sorrow, man
I?m Irish as it is

(Chorus 2)

You don?t know if the beer is bitter
?Til you buy a glass
You don't know if your peace of mind
Is just a piece of ass

And I?m sure I?ll kiss my share of frogs
Before my time is done
The world is full of bastards
And I?ve dated every one
