The Proclaimers - Cap in Hand Lyrics

Lyrics to 'Cap in Hand' by the Proclaimers.

[kylerennie]

"We beg for a piece of whats already ours"

So many lines in this song ring true with scotland but this one does the most. 🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[andywhitehead]

As a proud Englishman all I can say is "Get out now, get away from Westminster and its cow shite". If I had the chance to leave I would with in a heart beat

[bridan]

Independence in the face of BOJO the Psychotic Clown and the whole Brexit mess is a no brainer.

[Ayeskint]

Great track. Love the tune, but the lyrics make me angry (they're meant to, probably), get the blood up. Because I can't understand why we still put up with it - but I think more and more are seeing Westminster for the greedy, grasping, destructive cesspool of self-absorption that it is. The time is coming - I just wish it would hurry up!

[richardt]

saw Proclaimers live last week absolutely amazing Band .

[jakestone]

I've listened to this song so very many times and it only now occurred to me how do often when a person sings their accent drops, even other proclaimers songs. And the symbolism of obviously making the conscious decision to incorporate his accent when singing a song so thematically tied to their national identity.

[kinggeorge]

Not long now.

Cap in hand no more.

Westminster no more.

Trident no more.

BBC no more.

STV no more.

Britnat political parties no more.

[scottforrest]

we boast, then we cower. so very, very true.

[womba]

given that when they wrote this song hibs' goalie was probably andy goram i would ask them how exactly they expected stranraer to pull off that signing.

[grahamlive]

Let’s not cower when we get a second chance. Get off your fucking knees Scotland!! 6 years on and I still can’t believe what we did! Next time, let’s get it right!

[rosemarycuthbert]

Its a rebel song for Scotland. One of the few remaining colonies of the English Toraidh empire

[highlandladdie]

BesT Song Ever Written 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎵🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎵

[oldtimer]

This ranks right up there with a parcel of rogues in a nation.

[christopherlambert]

Should play it everywhere before the next referendum! Get people thinking for once!

[spikem]

NEVER WILL UNDERSTAND..MA SIMPLE MIND BOGGLES ???? 🙀

[benjones]

A simple song stating why Scotland should be an independent country

[Pennyburn]

You can still rise now and be a nation again.... 😂😭😭NO YE CANNAE 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[RecordsWithRyan]

I'm English but i'd Scottish Independence! and Welsh, we should disband the UK

[thomasslattery]

You’d think the Scotch would have got some independence going by now!

[BarryTheBeef]

I mean I'm English and even I don't wanna be ruled by our Govt. LOL
