we're lookin' back to see
the eighteenth century
talkin' bout the shit that went down
after the fall of culloden
that's when prince charlie ran away
the dragons came, they hacked and slayed
yeah they burned 'em out
well i'm not laying the blame
and anybody alive today
but the crimes and lies in history shout
about the night the lights went out
after endless heinous deeds
no one was safe
not a man or a laddie
not a woman or a lassie
with blooded cold steel hands
they began
to clear the highlands of her nobel clans
the night the lights went out in Scotland...
...went out.
