Lyrics
Watch your house was an idiom used in Irish soccer circles, meaning "watch your back." The song featured a famous chant from the Irish defeat of England in UEFA Euro 1988: "What's the score? Up one-nil! Are you listening, Jimmy Hill?"[4]
Reception
Balls.ie described the song as "divisive,"[5] while RTÉ described it as "flaccid" and "dull, dull, dull!"[6]
