Celtic Folk/Rock - high energy, foot-taping, dance inspiring, sing-along encouraging music.

We are four lads, England born Chris, as well as Jim, Derrek and Matt, who like to enjoy ourselves, and like to get everybody around us to have a fun time, but we also are very dedicated musicians. Although it may seem like Claymore is just about jumping around and not appearing serious, all four of us are committed to being the best at what each of us do.

Lyrics

Passing In 
© Chris Greve October 14, 2006

I’d like to take a moment to introduce to you
An odd kind of ritual is something that we do
The rarest of afflictions that there has ever been
A wonderful tradition that we call passing in
It may be a condition that’s whacky that’s for sure
But it’s not the kind of ailment you’d ever want to cure
And anyone who has it both the women and then men
They pray that they will always have what they call passing in

Chorus
So pour one more and we will drink it down
And pour one for everyone and we will drink the round
And if you say the words last call it would be a sin
 ‘cause while everybody’s passing out we’ll be passing in


I once knew a man who woke at the crack of noon
Although he tried his very best the time would come too soon
I’ll spend the day just cleaning up and be in bed by ten
And I will have a good night’s sleep instead of passing in
But the time went quickly and soon was ten o’clock
He’d start to feel quite antsy and the opportunity would knock
Five or six hours later he’d be suppin’ back the gin
And as his friends were passing out he’d be passing in
Chorus
There is a gal I’ll tell you of , she’s really quite the brit
While others have plans of staying out she’d have none of it
As the pub would start to fill She’d yell above the din
One more drink and off I go I won’t be passing in
Well four or five hours later she’d start in with the shots
The type of libations of which your gut it rots
Let’s carry on the party just tell me where and when
You’re going home? I’m not done yet! I’m just passing in!
Chorus
It’s when your eyes are open although they are wide shut
It is when you are sitting down although you’re standing up
And you are quoting Socrates while wearing such a grin 
And when you should be passing out you are passing in
So now you know the type of things to keep a special eye
That may afflict your loving wife or your special guy
You now know the name for it and attempt it now and then
The best known affliction what we call passing in  
Chorus
