Heart Of Lothian |
Wide boys, wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian. |
Wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian. |
Wide boys, we were wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian. |
These hearts of Lothian. |
It’s six o’clock in the tower blocks, |
The stalagmites of culture shock, (culture shock) |
And the trippers of the light fantastic, bowdown, hoedown |
Spray their pheremones on this perfume uniform. |
And anarchy smiles in the Royal Mile. |
And they’re waiting on the Slyboys, flyboys, wideboys. |
Rooting, tooting Cowboys, lucky little ladies at the watering holes. |
They’ll score the Friday night goals. |
I was born, with a heart of Lothian. |
I was born, with a heart of Lothian. |
I was born, with a heart of Lothian. |
With a heart of Lothian. |
II) Curtain Call |
And the man from the magazine, |
Wants another shot of you all curled up. |
'Cos you look like an actor in a movie shot. |
But you’re feeling like a wino in a parking lot. |
How did I get here anyway? |
Do we really need a playback of the show? |
'Cos the wideboys want to head for the watering holes, |
Watering holes, watering holes. |
Let’s go. |
And the man in the mirror has sad eyes. |
