That could be an embarrassing bit of kinky behaviour, but what if she caught you boning a chick instead?

Day by day your estimation clocks up
Who deserves a smile and who a frown.
And girls you have to tell to pull their socks up
And those whose pants you’d most like to pull down.

One day I was in Waterford,
with wine and pints on the table.
The house was filled with women,
and myself, drinking their health.

I am a young fellow who's easy and bold,
In Castletown conners I'm very well known'
And in Newcastle West I spent many a night,
With Kitty and Judy and Mary.
My father rebuked me for being such a rake,
And spending my time in such frolicsome ways,
But I ne'er could forget the sweet nature of Jane,
Agus fágaimíd siúd mar atá sé.

(from The Limerick Rake The Irish loosely translates as "we won't say anymore about that.")
