Day 14 - St Andrews Day
This was the first lyric I wrote for this FAWM. I was always going to include it as it nails the theme and acts as a microcosm of the whole concept. Also I've always thought it unfair that Scotland get another bank holiday at the time that England, with nothing between August and December, really needs an extra one. We could even may Guy Fawkes Day official, but that's another song I might write for this.
However officially I'm done FAWM-ing this year now,, just tidying up tracks, re-singing some of the worst bits and then it's go up on Bandcamp, probably under the title "Holidays & Holy Days". I'll link it up here when its done.
Also, I'll be around for collabs etc if anyone fancies that. j$
Lyrics
Now I’ve been to Scotland But only once or twice All Mockery aside, ill Admit I found it …nice
Known for comedy festival And Nessie and the Lochs But best of all this thing they've got, Those lucky little Scots!
Now at this time of year England should remember Scots get extra paid day’s holiday Squeezed in December
Our National Day’s in April On Bill Shakespeare’s birthday - Just cos St George was Turkish, Churlish not to get free day?
Scots have their St. Andrew's Day To break up endless flow, its a Bit too close to Christmas Day So not best placed, I know
While down here in England Autumn soon gets old, Still I'll never move to Scotland Cos it gets too bloody cold.

Hooray for Casiocore!
I'm part Scottish through my dad's family. He himself was born in Leith. I've always thought we should get the day off by virtue of our heritage, but my workplace doesn't seem to agree...
