Jamie should have gotten the credit (or blame)

Surrounded by angry sheep with threatening bleats
All I want to do is look nice and neat
But it's my destiny to wear angst ridden pleats

There's a little black spot on my apron today
That's my kilt over there
It's the same old tartan as yesterday
That's my kilt over there
There's a black glengarry caught in a high tree top
That's my kilt over there
There's a lost fly plaid blowing and the wind won't stop
That's my kilt over there

I I have stood here sad and feeling incomplete
Surrounded by angry sheep with threatening bleats
All I want to do is look nice and neat
But it's my destiny to wear angst ridden pleats

There's a kilt pin fallen down a high cliff wall
That's my kilt over there
There's a tear in my under apron that’s been there since Fall
That's my kilt over there
There was an unbelievable big sale going on at Scot Web
That's my kilt over there
But I missed it and now my spirits ebb
That's my kilt over there

I have stood here sad and feeling incomplete
Surrounded by angry sheep with threatening bleats
All I want to do is look nice and neat
But it's my destiny to wear angst ridden pleats

There's a Moderator online but it looks like he is out
There's a kiltie who’s looking good but filled doubt
There’s a magnificent sporran I want in a brand new thread
There's an empty wallet that holds only the tears I shed

angst ridden pleats

angst ridden pleats
angst ridden pleats
angst ridden pleats
I'll always have
angst ridden pleats
angst ridden pleats

(With apologies to our fellow kilt wear Sting)

Your underwear spied by the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend...

and, your short hem
I bet you think your bits are not showing
your short hem
I bet you think your bits are not showing,
showing, showing

With apologies to "General" Larry Platt, I present this...

Kilt in the air,
Kilt in the air,
Struttin' like a stud
wit' yer kilt in the air.
Women goin' crazy,
Men run off in fear,
Struttin' like a stud
wit' yer kilt in the air!

That's Brilliant!

Have any of you guys ever heard of the Royal Stuarts? They have all sorts of parodies some of which include Plaid to the Bone, Well Dressed Scot and one on sporrans (got to look that one up when I get home).

They gave away CDs at Monterey last summer. They are really funny.

(Sorry Don Henley) Tune of boys of summer

They can see me, brown skin shining in the sun;
I stepped on my ghillie strings, tripped in front of ev'ry one.
Rolled down a small hill, ev'rybody see my bum;
Guess my day at the scots game's officially done......

Cheers to all you talented lyricists. Please keep 'em coming, I haven't laughed like this in quite a while. Thanks everyone.

At the NorCal kilt workshop with Elsie last week several of us collaberated on a "Pleat that Kilt" to the tune of Devo's "Crack that Whip." I'll try to recreate the lyrics and post them here.
