Judas
Scottish madmen having a ball
Slaughtered English, murdered Gaul
In the midst of battle and brawl
Will you heed my beckon call
Will you charge or will you crawl
Be my brother in murderous maul
A fearless warrior standing tall
Or will you not be there at all
But; if I should fall
Should my engine stall
If I loose my arms and all
would you join me in the fall
or care not what I might befall
Will you catch me
Will you save me
will you not be there at all
If I should fall
Is your sporran too full of English silver?

England never really beat Scotland - Scotland beat Scotland = they were too easily bribed to turn on their own - sad but true I have no silver in my sporran :-p

Crimsin said it true "fierceness and vulnerability" mixed in a style only you can do :)
(Random thought: My paternal grandmother came from Nairn so I'm 25% Scottish; I have some of her silver-ware.)

I demand silver reparations! - I am100% Pictish Scot - so I am either a sacrificial, chicken hero or a man easily bribed with silver. Probably the first rather than the last. Thanks for the read and the fascinating comments :-)

LOL a great way to make a profit, but then he ended up just hanging around. A wasted opportunity :-)
