Your Unionist Friend

 

This is where the parties part. SNP against the rest
of you and your unionist friends
I know politics bore you, but I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall
talking to you and your unionist friends

It was the wonkiest party that I’ve ever attended
if anything was broken I’m sure it could be mended
my head can’t tolerate this bobbing and pretending
listen to some bullet-head and the madness that he’s saying

This is where Westminster parts. Anti Scottish rhetoric
from you and your unionist friends
I know politics bore you but I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall
talking to you and your unionist friends

This is where the country parts. Yes people against the rest
of you and your unionist friends
I know politics bore you but I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall
talking to you and your unionist friends

There is a difference between party line and morals
I am no member, I have doubts and I have quarrels
I used to do gigs for them – not out of obedience
They stopped me before I embarrassed their high heid yins

Have you heard of a lad o pairts? It’s a bit patronising
but you use it, you and your unionist friends
I know comedy bores you but I feel like you’ve no sense of humour
You and your unionist friends

FIN!
