Cover art for You Won't Make a Fool Out Of Me lyrics by Flogging Molly

Talked about this song in English Class today and we couldn't agree on the meaning. Does somebody have any idea what it could be about? Some believed it's describing a historical event, like the Great Famine in Ireland, others were sure it critizises today's politicians. I'm eager to hear your ideas.
