I Just Can’t Get Enough (A Celtic Battle Cry)

Every city can boast a big ‘Derby’,
where the rivalry’s keen, fierce and tough;
but in Glasgow it hums,
to flutes, whistles and drums –
and know what?
I just can’t get enough!

It’s been dubbed the ‘Old Firm’ – but I hate that,
’cos it’s steeped in sectarian guff;
and it makes me feel sick,
how we’re tarred with one stick –
but know what?
I just can’t get enough!

When it comes to the hype and the mind games,
‘Walter’ thinks he’s the master of bluff;
but in Lenny we trust …
he’s the Gaffer, we must –
and know what?
I just can’t get enough!

When it’s time to square up to the ‘Dark Side’,
you just know things are gonna’ get rough;
time to dig in, stand tall,
face them down, give your all –
bring it on!

I just can’t get enough!

(With compliments to the Green Brigade and Depeche Mode)
