Dear Alex Salmond – I’m sending this note
Hoping that one day I give you my vote
Down here in England we’re under the cosh
The poor go to food banks- the posh keep their dosh
Cameron & Osborne they both make me sick
Two millionaires with a hamster called Nick
“We’re in this together,” they keep telling me
Alex it’s coo shit so please hear my plea
Chorus:
Dear Alex Salmond – could you fix it for me?
I want to be Scottish – when Scotland is free
I live in England – but I want to join you
Alex – dear Alex - could you fix it the noo?
Alex I’m north of the north south divide
No doubt about it - we’re on the same side
Birds of a feather – like eagles in flight
We know the south – don’t give a light
They’ve stolen the oil that was found on your land
It makes my blood boil how they treat Jimmy Shand
Did you hear Alex – believe it or not
They’re tried to charge more for a pasty that’s hot
Chorus
Must close now Alex – so I catch the post
Imagine me here – like poor Marley’s ghost
Wrapped up in chains but yearning to be
Where all the tuition & eye tests are free
TTFN slainte SNP
Write back dear Alex – ASAP
You won’t regret – helping if you can
Like Tammy Wynette – I stand by my man
Ending:
Alex reply:
Dear Sassenach slave – thanks for the note
Yes Cameron’s a knave and Obsborne’s a stoat
And Alistair Darling - why man what is the craic?
His hair is snow white and his eyebrows jet black
Ah sure yer ken weel we hey God on Oor side
When we eat oor Mars bar we like them deep fried
May your lum always reek – may ye never get nits
May your bum never squeak - I hope the kilt fits
