about

Inspired by the band’s show in 2009 at the infamous Insider Festival, Inshriach House. Dedicated to the two best thieving hounds, now sadly in the earth, Sampson and Monty.

lyrics

Three hours up the A9, Stuffed in the back of a rotten death trap,
Barrelling down the backroads, Knuckles ice-white, faces green from the smell, At last we reached this house, Met on the drive by a funny wee ginger
Man with a very strange name, Towed around by dog with a cheeky gleam in his eye.

He led us round the back, Past Bananas, Horndogs, a guy called Merv,
To arrive at a bright white tent, The place for us for to make our din,
There upon the stage, Sat three bottles of the most exquisite
Malt, but along with that, Was a thing of such beauty it caused us to write this (song)

That leg of lamb went around, Right round the whole of the tent, When we asked for it back, No sight nor scent could be found, That leg went around, devoured by the whole damn tent,
If I ever find the thief, I’ll put him in the ground.

It slid right off the bone, Never had such a rich treat been prepared,
In between each song, We’d take a bite with our teeth all bared
White as the glint in the eye, Of the hound who prowled all around our stage, Never letting his gaze, Depart from the prize that we prided, our leg of lamb.
