Findlay Napier
King Kong’s Visit to Glasgow
[Verse 1]
Kong’s up in Red Road
He wants to mend his ways
He’s usin' fist fulls of jumbo jets
To wipe the tears from his face
And enter an angel
With a shamrock on her thigh
And a likin' for great big monkeys
With tears in their eyes
[Verse 1]
And she said, "Come and see the Celtic
You will love the way they play
But if this team is to flourish, don’t kill McStay,"
She repeated to him, "Pure don’t kill McStay."
[Verse 3]
So he bumps into the floodlights
And the crowd begin to sing
"Why don’t you take him to Ibrox
We think he might blend in
And keep away from the People’s Palace
With his big and clumsy ways,"
"Come with me to The Perfect Beat
But don’t kill Josef K,"
She repeated to him, "Don’t kill Patrick Cane."
[Verse 4]
Next thing he knows he’s a husband
With a wife and children too
Now I’m a husband with a wife and kids
And it’s all thanks to you
And he turned and he waved from a jumbo jet
A tear was in his eyes
Down there smilin' was this little angel
With a shamrock on her thigh
And he waved them all goodbye
He winked and waved them all goodbye
