Singing in Croke Park

Maybe the IRFU should pass on the two national anthems [& the Ireland's Call dirge?] and invite Johnny Rotten to perform the Sex Pistols' 'God Save the Queen', whose last verse is:

God save the queen we mean it man
There is no future in England's dreaming
No future for you no future for me
No future no future for you

Johnny Rotten [real name John Lydon], whose parents were both Irish, has explained the lyrics as follows: "You don't write a song like 'God Save The Queen' because you hate the English race. You write a song like that because you love them, and you're sick of seeing them mistreated."
