There's a Leprechaun in me head, and I wish that I were dead
For I don't think he'll e'er let me be.
Oh, he tempts me with his gold, and if I were e'er so bold,
I'd strangle him and leave him in the street.
\bigskip
\textbf{Well, he says to me, "Ah, you're no Irish Laddie!}
\textbf{And ye call that thing a harp?"}
\textbf{But each time I share the lore that I am learning.}
\textbf{He hides in shame while my friends they chant. }
\textbf{La ta tee, da diddley dee, la ta tee ta tee da}
\textbf{La ta tee, da diddley diddley dai}
\textbf{La ta tee, da diddley dee, la ta tee ta tee da}
\textbf{La ta tee, da diddley diddley dai}

There's a leprechaun in my room. He swats me with a broom.
That's the reason I forget the words of this song.
Well, he shows me a four-leaf clover, and before me song is over,
It's buried in a bowl of Lucky Charms.
\bigskip
Ther'es a leprechaun on the floor, and he says that I'm a bore.
He yawns aloud as I sing my song.
He feigns one last breathe stolen, but I see his eyes are open.
And he's watching me with envy deep inside.
\bigskip
There's a leprechaun on a hill, and his gold is buried there.
So I grab him by the neck 'fore he gets away.
The pot's too heavy, he giggles, so I pinch me just a little,
And he thinks he's fooled me as I run away.
