1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I still look back laughing
to that famous Dens’ May day
when down amongst the Derry
those hopes were blown away.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 The two Kidds were playing
with Albert the full-time prince
the tears at the final whistle
and not a dry eye since.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 And then not weeks later
we saw them at Hampden Park,
Hewitt, Miller and McDougall
the gulf was oh’ so Stark.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 A beating so very easy
we hit them for goals a’ three
and ran up those Famous stairs
that trophy with happy glee.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Our clubs are no comparison
euro glory our historical pride
when we were beating ‘Real
your lot were on the slide.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Our stadium was an all-seater
and you lived in a dump
Macaroon bars in the away end
whilst we dined on steak rump.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 We won the league at your place
McKimmie’s 20 yard stunner
and even then afterwards
your fans they did a runner.

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Celebrations at the final whistle
Champions Premier once again,
clenched fists to travelling masses
next year we would retain.

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 Joy of victory at Tynecastle
The Dons travel back up to the ‘toon,
a victory parade lies waiting
only relegation for the maroon.

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 A track record of disaster
of false dawns ‘n’ near miss
laughing at your disasters
a red shirt forever shall kiss.

11 Leave a comment on verse 11 0 And today ran by a Charlatan
and eastern crook and clown
counting the cost of failure
in this debt you’ll drown.

12 Leave a comment on verse 12 0 Love A-Deen hate Hearts,
its always been this way
And Albert Kidd scores!
just what more can you say?
