You gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get on







I remember Carlo from nineteen sixty nine He always had big ears and a sword on his shoulder He wasn't so good looking, but he seemed to have such status While I had none, I asked my Mam, "How come?" Mother said Carlo was loose and cheap And boys like that ended up on Benefits Street Not like me, I was good, you see Now I saw Carlo in Buck House today He's a bloody prince now in every way So darn rich, people tell me he's a bitch With lovers by the score, do I have to tell you more Oh, you've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get on Principality can only hold you back The only men makin' it are men who are shakin' it They're faking all their morals on the mat It's an act, it's a fact You've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get a name Bein' a good Cymro can only get you hurt Inappropriate behaviour never brought a patriot fame And women will always crave an SNP skirt (kilt to youze) When you read the newspapers every day (No not the Scum) There's always some berk in the letters page of the Western Mail that's having his say By writing the usual bigotry, he makes himself a name And no one blames him, Patriots all do the same But then they get serious and elected to power
and go to the Welsh Assembly and that bullying shower The FM is a Lawyer who's a really shrewd guy And get's the peoples' sympathy by crying and crying






Oh, you've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get on Principality can only hold you back The only men makin' it are men who are shakin' it They're faking all their morals on the mat It's an act, it's a fact You've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get a name Bein' a good Cymro can only get you hurt Inappropriate behaviour never brought a patriot fame And women will always crave an SNP skirt (kilt to youze)
Well, the next time it happens as he starts to write Of his schemes through the days and his plan through the nights And even though it's tasteless, the book sells coast to coast On all the chat shows, you can see him boast And now they're makin' a film of the book And no one gives a damn that the boy was a ham They've got posters obscene, now he's mixin with the cream No one even cares what he's done or where he's been Oh, you've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get on Principality can only hold you back The only men makin' it are men who are shakin' it They're faking all their morals on the mat It's an act, it's a fact You've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get a name Bein' a good Cymro can only get you hurt Inappropriate behaviour never brought a patriot fame And women will always crave an SNP skirt (kilt to youze)




Yes, you've gorra siarad Saesneg if you wanna get on
