The Lyrics

About the vastly expensive talking shop known as the Scottish Parliament.
Verse 1
High, higher than the sun,
The cost goes on and on,
The Parliament drains the nation here,
The building is a rip,
First Minister's a drip,
A tip:

Bridge
Your estimation's wrong,
This devolution song
Says simply all along
The concept's wrong,
Revolution,
Price was high,
In the sky,
It makes me feel I want to cry,
Oh, why?!
De-vo-lu-tion,

Verse 2
A bar,
A place for all the cars,
It's cost too much so far,
Maybe we could build it without these,
It's out of our control,
I think that on the whole
You know

Bridge
Your estimation's wrong,
This devolution song
Says simply all along
The concept's wrong,
Revolution,
Price was high,
In the sky,
It makes me feel I want to cry,
Oh, why?!
De-vo-lu-tion,

Chorus
Ooh-ooh, (x7)

Bridge 2
Blair,
Lift me up out of these blues,
Won't you stop this damned thing, do,
Let Westminster rule,

Bridge
It's wrong,
This devolution song
Says simply all along
The concept's wrong,
Revolution,
Price was high,
In the sky,
It makes me feel I want to cry,
Oh, why?!

Chorus
Ooh-ooh, (x7)
(fade out)
