Ceann
Ceann is an American Rock Irish Drinking Music band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Most commonly known for their song Pittsburgh Makes Me Drunk..

History
Patrick Halloran and Marc Wisnosky started the band in college. They wanted to play some Irish songs at a party on St. Patrick’s Day, so they learned a few of the classic Irish pub tunes and wrote a couple of original Pittsburgh-themed Irish songs. They started off by playing at an open mic event. The bar they played at was very impressed—with the crowd, certainly not with their playing, but invited them back for a show. They struggled in the beginning, but crowds found them great to be around. They began to play about fifteen to twenty Irish songs and then would eventually switch to songs by 'N Sync, Hanson, Snoop Dogg, NWA.

by: CeannIf you're a pirate I don't believe it
I don't believe that you are capable of such deeds
If you're a pirate let's see your wallet
and we will see if you are licensed for the seas
Are you capable of swinging from the riggings of a ship
Or wearing a black do-rag when it really ain't that hip
I don't think so,
I don't think so, at all
CHORUS:
So where's your eye patch
Where's your peg leg
If you're a pirate
Where's your gun
Where's your booty
Your sassy parrot
I can't picture you on a bottle of cheap rum
'Cause You're the worst pirate,
the worst pirate in the world
You're the worst pirate,
the worst pirate in the world
'Cause you're a girl
So all you females just put your swords down
I'm not a fool and I'm not amused
You've got no hook hand, no secret island
And pirates never go to the bathroom in twos
So if this isn't some sort of cheap prank
Then tell me who exactly walks your plank
Not me, not me
No, nay, never, not me
CHORUS
A pirate vessel is not a bedroom
No walk-in closet, there's no bidet
There's no pink loofah hanging in the shower and
pirates don't worry about what shoes they wear today
Because everyone knows that pirates just wear black
They raise a flag of skull and bones when they attack
Not birds and flowers, not birds and flowers, no way!
