As soon as I hit that lyrics page (in Firefox, with NoScript enabled) Symantec AntiVirus comes screaming up:

For those of you who want the lyrics without the ownage, here they are (slightly modified to avoid getting ruined by lameness filter):

We'll be singing
When we're winning we'll be singing

I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down (x4)

Pissing the night away, pissing the night away

He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink

He sings the songs that remind him
Of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the better times

Oh Danny Boy, Danny Boy, Danny Boy

I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down (x4)

Pissing the night away
Pissing the night away

He drinks a whisky drink
He drinks a vodka drink
He drinks a lager drink
He drinks a cider drink

He sings the songs that remind him
Of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him
Of the better times

Don't cry for me
Next door neighbour

I get knocked down
But I get up again
You're never going to keep me down (x4)

I get knocked down
But I get up again (we'll be singing)
You're never going to keep me down (when we're winning)

I get knocked down
But I get up again (pissing the night away)
You're never going to keep me down (x14)
