When time it is tae market gae
And buy oor food for A' that
We look and shop until we drop
For choosin' this and A' That
For A' that and A' that;
Our groceries and A' that
We check oor list and then insist
we need the lot and all That

We search the shelves tae please oorselves
Wi' cans and boxes; a' that
Tae make, at least, a modest feast
For dads and moms and oor sprat
For A' that & a' that
Oor progeny and A'that
Even the dog will love us when
We feed him wi' the grey cat

And when it comes oor time tae gae
tae pay oor tab for A' that
We stack the lot ontae the belt
that tallies up for A' that
For A' that and A' that
Oor weekly pay and A' that
She asks us what would we prefer
Tae have her stuff in all That

I always say for me OK;
be it paper, plastic; A' that
I'll take what's easy , and is good
for recycling and A' that
For A' that, and A' that
For landfills, bins and A' that
The man o' independent mind
he tries tae think o' a' that.....

As nice as this parody may be, why is the thread labeled as a review?

Because I didn't know what else to call it.

Tell Nick "Thanks" Kendall - I shall 'steal' it for the Scots at Maidenhead !

And you coulkd have used 'Lyrics Add' as a title
