Artist/Band: Ballboy
Lyrics for Song: I Hate Scotland
Lyrics for Album: Club Anthems [2002]



Sometimes in my life

I take all my hopes and dreams, all my ambitions and all my aspirations

And I give them all up, trade them all in, put them all to one side

For a springboard, and a pair of shorts, and a plain white t-shirt

And the ability to do a perfect backflip



I think if I could do it, the seconds would feel like hours to me

It would be like medicine staying with me

During the days and during the weeks when I'm just pushing on, just getting by



And it's funny how your life is

It's funny how you can spend years and years building it up, layer by layer

And then throw it all away in a second



And I'm not the boy I used to be

And though I've more or less accepted it,

Although I'm no longer trying to change it,

I still regret it, I regret it every day

I'm not the boy I used to be



Maybe it's Scotland I hate

I know I hate so many things about it

I hate the way punishment's at the heart of everything

I hate the way parents speak to their children

I hate the way everything always has to be someone's fault

Even though some things just happen, some things just happen



I hate the way people bring up their children to be exactly the same as they are

Just so they can justify the way they've lived their life

I hate the way that we expect to fail

And then we fail

And then we get bitter because we've failed

Maybe it's Scotland I hate



Maybe Scotland's got nothing to do with it

Maybe all of this has got nothing to do with anything

But I know that I would give it all up, trade it all in,

For a springboard, and a pair of shorts, and a plain white t-shirt

And a perfect backflip

A springboard, and a pair of shorts, and a plain white t-shirt

And a perfect backflip

I'd give it all up for that

I'd give it all up for that

I'd give it all up for that
