lyrics

Right Royal Landfill

Verse 1
Tons’n tons o’ rubble and every bit a gem
And it a’ came fae a monument wi a very important name
Could hae used ony auld rubble fae the schemes or the toun
But they jist hid tae haul the Royal Arch doon

Verse 2
I honestly thought it was swere tae go cause it put up sic a fight
But the breakers got it in the end we loads o’ dynamite
Vandalism tae the core and wonton wreck ‘n ruin
When they up an’ tore the Royal Arch doon

Refrain
Why did they no move it tae some place else
Could hae been done and all would have been well
If ye’d just as much as scratched it before
Ye’d likely end up wi a night in the cells

Verse 1
