Oh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenOh my father was an Ulsterman, proud Protestant was heMy mother was a Catholic girl, from County Cork was sheThey were married in two churches, lived happily enoughUntil the day that I was born and things got rather toughOh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenBaptised by father Reilly, I was rushed away by carTo be made a little orangeman, my father's shining starI was christened David Anthony, but still in spite of thatTo my father I was William while my mother called me PatOh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenWith mother every Sunday to mass I'd proudly strollThen after that the orange lads would try to save my soulFor both sides tried to claim me, but I was smart becauseI played the flute or played the harp, depending where I wasOh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenOne day my ma's relations came round to visit meJust as my father's kinfolk were all sittin' down to teaWe tried to smooth things over, but they all began to fightAnd me being strictly neutral, I bashed everyone in sightOh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenNow my parents never could agree about my type of schoolMy learning was all done at home, that's why I'm such a foolThey both passed on, god rest them, but left me caught betweenThat awful color problem of the orange and the greenOh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was greenYes it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seenMy father he was orange and my mother she was green
