Legendary Pancake Brothers

Two brothers hailed from the old country, from Donnybrook -
one more like an engineer, the other like a cook. 
They specialized in pancakes - the best, you can't deny.  
Sean made them taste like heaven, and Finn stacked them high.

Supplies came from all around, in wagons and in trucks.
Sean whipped up the batter, and ol' Finn he constructs,
with eggs from every chicken and milk from every cow,
maple syrup miracles from the oats that they did grow. 

When these flapjack masters grew old and had to die,
they made a stack of hotcakes and they climbed it to the sky.
Kids, each time you eat griddle cakes, you should be like me,
stack 'em high and think of Sean and Finn McGee.
