'tis better to die 'neath an Irish sky...

Scots Wa Hae we wallace bled
scots wham bruce has aften led
welcome to your gory bed or tae victory.

Now's th' dae an' now's the hour
see the front o' battle 'ore
see approach proud as a foul
chains and slavery.

By opressor's woes an' pains
by ye sons in servile chains
we sha' drain our dearest vains
but we shall b' free!

wa fae Scotland's king and law
freedom's sword will strongly dra
freemen fight and freemen fa
foreward, on wi me!

Lay the proud userpers low
tyrants fa' in every foe
liberty's in every blow
let us do aer dee!
--Scots Wa Hae by Robert Burns

Bob has held back for as long as he could. for that I blame the English. (I should tell you now, when I say "English" I mainly refer to the English government.) anyway, Bob has probably spent days worth of time ranting about this to his friends, family, pets, old people, books, movies, random people and chairs, so now he will fill you in on it. It all starts in 1290-something when Scotland's last true king died, thrown from his horse. At that time the English (Edward I in particular) saw fit to take over Scotland and hold it ever since. William Wallace rose and fell, as did Robert the bruce and Bonnie Prince Charlie. Scotland is still held, although they call it a "mutual agreement" it was nothing of the sort. This angers klt-wearing Bob. Bob would like to drive a rusty old claymore into the chest of every person involved, because as if taking away Scottish independence wasn't bad enough, they now must also take the culture and language. Scots are no longer brought up to think they are Scots, but rather "brittish" which is much much more associated with England than Scotland or wales or any of the other countries England has taken over. They refuse to give back the land that rightfuly belongs to the people, like a small child taking a toy from another little bugger and not giving it back. this is utter origional sin, complete selfishness. Google "scottish independence" if you want to see more ppitiful dorks like me. so anyway, just thought you should know.
O flower of scotland
when will we see your light again
that fought and died for
your wee bit hill and glen
and stood against him
proud edward's army
and sent him homeward tae think again!
