I Hate Scotland – Ballboy – letras

Sometimes in my lifeI take all my hopes and dreamsAll my ambitions and all my aspirationsAnd i give them all upTrade them all inPut them all to one sideFor a springboardAnd a pair of shortsAnd a plain white t-shirtAnd the ability to do a perfect backflipI think if i could do itThe seconds would feel like hours to meIt would be like medicineStaying with me during the days and during the weeksWhen i’m just pushing onJust getting byAnd it’s funny how your life isIt’s funny how you can spend years and yearsBuilding up layer by layerAnd then throw it all away in a secondAnd i’m not all what i used to beAnd although i’ve more or less accepted itAlthough i’m no longer trying to change itI still regret itI regret it every dayI’m not all what i used to beMaybe it’s scotland i hateI know i hate so many things about itI hate the way punishments are the heart of everythingI hate the way parents beat their childrenI hate the way everything always has to be someone’s faultEven though some things just happenedSome things just happened!I hate the way people bring up their childrenTo be exactly the same as they areJust so they can justify the way they’ve lived their livesI hate the way we expect to failAnd then we failAnd then we get bitter because we failedMaybe it’s scotland i hateMaybe scotland’s got nothing to do with itMaybe all this has got nothing to do with anythingBut i know that i would give it all upTrade it all inFor a springboardAnd a pair of shortsAnd a plain white t-shirtAnd a perfect backflipA springboardAnd a pair of shortsAnd a plain white t-shirtAnd a perfect backflipI’d give it all up for thatI’d give it all up for thatI’d give it all up for that
