1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Professor Noel I.Q. McKnowall,
In mortarboard an’ gown,
Supports th’ Academicals
From Hamilton wee town,
A’ th’ groun’ on Saturdays,
As y’ might expect,
Th’ abuse he bawls a’ referees
Is grammatic’lly correct…

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 “YOU COPULATING IMBECILE,
SO OPTICALLY DEFECTIVE,
WHOSE EXISTENCE WOULD BE TERMINAL
IF EXPUNGEMENT WERE ELECTIVE!!
YOUR PREDILICTION TOWARD SELF-MOLESTATION
IS COMPREHENSIVELY CONDUCIVE
TO THE INEVITABLE CONCLUSION THAT
A HAMILTON VICTORY WILL PROVE ELUSIVE!!!”

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Th’ townsfolk sittin’ in th’ stand,
Who wear th’ kilt an’ sporran,
Nudge each other, wink an’ say,
“Tha’ language mus’ be foreign,
For th’ wurds th’ lad is usin’
Are really no’ quite clear,
Bu’ he supports th’ Accies
An’ tha’s all tha’ matters here…”
