Lord we pray that the Double Gloucester is in stock in M&S today And that also the tea and coffee of our choice Has been driven up from pastures south. And Chunky Chips that cook in 30 minutes Be there also to sustain us. And all the other things in our trolley that we gather May they all be there Regardless of the English weather. And keep the shops in Scotland open wide While in England the tills in silence hide – Especially on Sunday. And of the sporting world that flits across our viewing screen Less please of Brechin City and Aberdeen. We'd rather really enjoy the skills and hassle Of teams like Newcastle. And insurances that let us sustain a car To let us gaze on the beauties of Lochnagar, Are all provided in ample measure By the nice people in Chipping Ongar. But let us not forget the fact that Scottish Power That with pride brings energy to Berriedale and Portgower Is but a trinket in the crown of Iberdrola With headquarters in Bilbao. Thus in affirmation the call is clear For all the goods and services we in Scotland hold dear, We say 'Keep it coming'.
