Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers is the first full-length cat-related CD by Marc Gunn. The majority of the songs are parodies of Irish folk songs (although not necessarily drinking songs, as the album title suggests), with new cat-themed lyrics written by Marc Gunn. He later released Irish Drinking Songs: A Cat Lover's Companion which contained the 'traditional' versions of the songs he filked.

“Irish Americans are about as Irish as black Americans are African.”
—Bob Geldof (b. 1954)
“Wait a second while I take a swig off this bottle: it’s my true and only Helicon, my Caballine fount, my sole Enthusiasm. Here, drinking, I deliberate, I reason, I resolve and conclude. After the epilogue I laugh, I write, I compose, I drink. Ennius drinking would write, writing would drink.”
—François Rabelais (1494–1553)
“People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
The air is full of children, statues, roofs
And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“That’s what the cat said to the canary when he swallowed him: “You’ll be all right.””
—Alvah Bessie, Ranald MacDougall, and Lester Cole. Raoul Walsh. Mr. Williams (Henry Hull)
““Old lovers yet may have
All that time denied
Grave is heaped on grave
That they be satisfied
Over the blackened earth
The old troops parade....””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
