Mother Glasgow (Live) lyrics

by

Alan Cumming


[Verse 1]
In the Second City of the Empire
Mother Glasgow watches all her weans
Trying hard to feed her little starlings
Unconsciously she clips their little wings

[Chorus]
Mother Glasgow's succour is perpetual
Nestling the Billy and the Tim
I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo
To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim

[Verse 2]
Among the flightless birds and sightless starlings
Father Glasgow knows his charges well
He won't make his own way up to heaven
By waltzing all his charges into hell

[Chorus]
Mother Glasgow's succour is perpetual
Nestling the Billy and the Tim
I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo
To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim
And the tree
And the bird
And the fish
And the bell
Let Glasgow flourish

(Audience whistling,clapping and yelling)
Thank you!
