Your enemies, your fortress they surround.
So you must hone your wits, plan your defence;
Make sure your strategies are sure and sound.
Your enemies, your fortress they surround;
So be prepared to hold your precious ground,
And then attack, to gain your recompense.
Your enemies, your fortress they surround;
So you must hone your wits, plan your defence.

The short gay Irishman named Joyce,
He has a quite annoying voice.
The faith of footballer Israel,
Joyce says is way beyond the pale.
(Itโ€™s not a trendy โ€œlifestyle choiceโ€).

Exit Israel

Whatโ€™s written in the Bible, Israel said.
And so the rugby priests have banned Folau.
It wasnโ€™t some satanic verse heโ€™d read โ€”
Whatโ€™s written in the Bible, Israel said.
And just for that the priests will have his head.
For blasphemy the priests will not allow.
Whatโ€™s written in the Bible, Israel said.
And so the rugby priests have banned Folau.
