She plays the bagpipes, and I lead the pipe band.

Blow up your bag, Amanda, so must ya’,
Press your left arm, keep it pretty well here;
Scotland’s got over Storm Floris tomorrow,
so tune up your bagpipes and make the reeds clear.
There’s me watching you, at the Edinburgh Tattoo
My mace spinning high the way
drum majors do.
