There's a house in Edinburgh where the chosen people go
Who they are and why they go there, no one really knows
Wooden sticks to hide the windows, granite walls and flags of blue
One-two-nine elected members, but I don't know what they do
Hooray for Holyrood
It's where it happens, or at least it should
It ain't that bad but, hell, it ain't that good
Hooray for Holyrood
Half a billion pounds and counting for this oak and concrete maze
And so many water features, I could paddle there for days
They tell us it's fantastic, but every Scotsman knows
That fairytale so fitting, "The Emperor's New Clothes"
Hooray for Holyrood
It's where it happens, or at least it should
It ain't that bad but, hell, it ain't that good
Hooray for Holyrood
See our noble representatives, pontificating there
It's easy to mistake them for people who care
We voted for their eloquence, but sadly I must tell
They never read the words, "Say but little, say it well"
Hooray for Holyrood
It's where it happens, or at least it should
It ain't that bad but, hell, it ain't that good
Hooray for Holyrood
Our Parliament's in Holyrood, well, what is in a name
This is not Los Angeles, they've mixed it up again
Hollyrood or Hollywood, two countries, I must say
One has lousy actors, the other's in the USA
Hooray for Holyrood
It's where it happens, or at least it should
It ain't that bad but, hell, it ain't that good
Hooray for Holyrood
Hooray for Holyrood
It's where it happens, or at least it should
It ain't that bad but, hell, it ain't that good
Hooray for Holyrood
If you tell lies, it is said
That the roof will fall down on your head
