Вступление
[Intro]
D
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
[VERSE 1]
D A
I'm a skyscraper wean, I live on the nineteenth flair;
D
But I'm no' gaun oot tae play ony mair,
G D
'Cause since we moved tae Castlemilk, I'm wastin' away
A D
'Cause I'm gettin' wan meal less every day.
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
[VERSE 2]
D A
On the first day ma maw flung oot a daud o' Hovis broon;
D
It came skytin' oot the windae and went up insteid o' doon.
G D
Noo every twenty-seven hoors it comes back intae sight
A D
'Cause ma piece went intae orbit and became a satellite.
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
[VERSE 3]
D A
On the second day ma maw flung me a piece oot wance again.
D
It went and hut the pilot in a fast low-flying plane.
G D
He scraped it aff his goggles, shouting through the intercom,
A D
'The Clydeside Reds huv giat me wi' a breid-an-jeely bomb'.
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
[VERSE 4]
D A
On the third day ma maw thought she would try another throw.
D
The Salvation Army band was staundin' doon below.
G D
'Onward, Christian Soldiers' was the piece they should've played,
A D
But the oompah man was playing a piece an' marmalade.
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
[VERSE 5]
D A
We're wrote away to Oxfam to try an' get some aid,
D
An' a' the weans in Castlemilk have formed a 'piece brigade'.
G D
We're gonnae march to George's Square demanding civil rights
A D
Like nae mair hooses over piece-flinging height.
[CHORUS]
D A
Oh ye cannae fling pieces oot a twenty storey flat,
D
Seven hundred hungry weans'll testify, to that.
G D
If it's butter, cheese or jeely, if the breid is plain or pan,
A D
The odds against it reaching earth are ninety-nine tae wan.
