Analysis of BYE BYE SCOTCHLAND
"Toot, Toot, oh what a hoot, bye bye your Scotch nation.
As we implement our Grand English Plantation
And there'll be no need for a Scotch Railway Station
As you'll live on a McDonald's reservation."
"Aye---------------------------------------------------------------AYE (crescendo)
That'll be bloody right
That'll be bloody right
We'11 all live in a McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
We'11 all live in a McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
We'11 aim and fire, torpedoes One and Two
Torpedoes One and Two
Torpedoes One and Two
And disable English Frigate, one or two
Frigate, one or two
Frigate, one or two
Then we’ll continue our fight all the way
Our fight all the way
Our fight all the way
To take back what was vilely taken away
Vilely taken away
Vilely taken away
And England has finally seen some sense
Seen some sense
Seen some sense
So finally, Scotland’s free once again
Free once again
Free once again
So now we’ll retire our McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
And it’s now in the Scots War Museum
Scots War Museum
Scots War Museum
With Pride restored and forever on show
And forever on show
And forever on show
So, in future we’ll let all Scots know
Let all Scots know
Let all Scots know
That Scotland lives for bloody ever more
For bloody ever more
For bloody ever more
Say Bye Bye English Plantation
Bye Bye Plantation
Bye Bye Plantation
Say Bye Bye McDonald’s Reservation
Bye Bye Reservation
Bye Bye Reservation
So, let’s hear the Scotch reply once again
Reply once again
Reply once again
"Aye---------------------------------------------------------------AYE (crescendo)
That'll be bloody right
That'll be bloody right
We'11 all live in a McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
We'11 all live in a McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
McDonald's submarine
And we’ll all live for bloody ever more
For bloody ever more (Kids sing this ) (crescendo)
Bloody ever more (Ladies sing this)) (crescendo)
Bloody ever more (Men sing this) (crescendo)
And for bloody ever more (all sing) (crescendo)
And We’ll all live in a McDonald's submarine.) (Decrescendo)
And we all must prevail, as Scotland’s not for sale ! “
