Lyrics -
          12 Folk Days of Christmas      
      On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me 
      A worn out McCalman's LP       
      On the second ... 
        Two botched up bookings 
      Third ... 
        Three ageing hippies 
      Fourth ... 
        Four fumbling fiddlers 
      Fifth ... 
        Steeleye Span 
      Sixth ... 
        Six Spinners' harmonies 
      Seventh ... 
        Seven Drunken Nights 
      Eighth ... 
        Eight Tibetan nose-flute players who have had an unfortunate cancellation, any chance of a booking? 
      Ninth ... 
        Nine Corries' concerts 
      Tenth ... 
        Ten tanked-up hecklers, "get on with it, geez (give us) "The Flower of Scotland"! 
      Eleventh ... 
        Eleven Lawyer's letters 
      Twelfth ... 
        Twelve months to go till the next "Awards" show       12 Folk Days of Christmas
