You claim to not care
To never be aware
Then jump to the defence
Of what doesn't make sense
There's no pride in naïveté
You don't have to give your two cents
Standing in the way of progress
With your forceful ignorance
You know what's right
But accept the wrong
Can't sit here and play along
Easily influenced
With a whole lot of pretence
Like no truer a Scotsman
Thou shalt not dare to be free and fair
An argument to the people
An appeal to tradition
Tell yourself the truth
Not like the lies said in contrition
You know what's right
But accept the wrong
Can't sit here and play along
I can't sit here and play
I can't sit here and play along
I can't sit here and play
I can't sit here and play along
I can't sit here and play
I can't sit here and play along
You know what's right
But accept the wrong
Can't sit here and play along
The irony it's plain to see
So i'll say it in three
So long
