In 'Last Night I Was in the Granzie' Davie Stewart sings:
'Oh, me and the mannishee laddie, we travelled from Aberdeen tae Bonny Dundee / But we couldnae get nae stollage, we had tae bing avree.'
And in Nic Cave's superlative reading of Stagger Lee:
'I'll stay here till Billy comes in, till time comes to pass and furthermore I'll fuck Billy in his motherfucking ass,' said Stagger Lee. 'I'm a bad motherfucker, don't you know and I'll crawl over fifty good pussies just to get one fat boy's asshole,' said Stagger Lee
