| A national survey o fitba fans SFA authorities hiv cairry’t oot Tae see fit fans are thinkin Fit things fans wid gie the boot . Bigger leagues fans div wint Iss een is tap o their list Yet the money men in fitba Say iss idea his nae grist . Ae bodie tae rin Scottish fitba Iss thocht it fair his merit Lit’s aa hope the heid yins Aboot iss idea they aa git it . Kick aff times they gyang back Tae 3pm on a Setterday Nae spread ower the wikk Jist so’s TV can hae their say . The season tae bide the wye it is Fae August throwe tae May In Simmer time fowk dee ither things Than watch their favourites play . The cost tae watch a gemme Shud noo cum doon in price Iss een the powers aat be Maun listen tae fans’ advice . Fowk dinna wint 12-12-18 leagues Wi aa its different splits A plan drawn up bi eejits Wi a help fae ither gits |
Fans they are the lifeblood O the gemme it’s fer sure Yet TV companies they dictate Tae satisfy the fireside viewer . A’m auld aneuch tae myn Fitba afore the ‘ear o ’75 Fin fans hid a bigger league Gemme’s feenish’t at quarter tae five . Fit’s the eese o haen a survey If fowk’s wishes they dinna heed A’m feart it’s aa doon tae money An nae fit puir fans need . Bit a wee warnin tae the SFA An tae chairmen in SPL and SFL Ignore fans wishes at yer peril An be telt tae gyang tae hell . The fans hiv clearly shown They think fitba’s in a state If thingies dinna chynge a’m feart They’ll nae langer cum throwe the gate . A fitba match withoot ony fans Wid be like Wallace withoot Gromit An verra seen the gemme wid dee An T.V. companies wid then hop it . So fowks in chairge o oor game Afore Scottish fitba it git’s lost Bring in a bigger league noo An reduce the bliddy cost |
