There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama
You don't believe me, I hear you say
But Barack's as Irish, as was JFK
His granddaddy's daddy came from Moneygall
A small Irish village, well known to you all
Toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a lama
There's no one as Irish As Barack O'Bama
He's as Irish as bacon and cabbage and stew
He's Hawaiian, he's Kenyan, American too
He’s in the white house, cause he took his chance
Now let’s see Barack - Riverdance
Sorry to but in to oor Irish friends
though they ’ve started a story, it doesnae quite end.
Yes Barack had a grandad, but a grandmama too,
and her folks came from Scotland, I’m telling you true.
A man called FitzRandolf to Boston he came,
His great grandaugter Prudence, she then lost his name.
But she’s a great, great, great grandma of Barack’s own mum.
Yes he’s Kenyan, he’s Irish, but we’re claiming a son.
Descended from Scotland’s King William the Lion
I’m telling you Paddy this Jock he ain’t lying
Like Jonny Cash and James Connolly, he’s from a mixed clan
Part Irish, part Scottish, a real tartan man
Fitzrandold, McGregor, Ann Dunham, O’Hara
There’s nae one as Scottish as Barack Obama
In Stirling, Dunfermline at the heart of the Barras
The new king of Scotland is Barack Obama
He was born in Hawaii one glorious day
His ma came from Kansas, his dad far away
He’s Keynan, He’s Irish, even big in Havana
and made in Chicago, that Barack Obama
Ohio, Virginia and Florida too
Let’s raise up three cheers for the red, white and blue
add in green and orange, and some African too
Those bigots and rednecks won’t know what to do
Cause we’re Catholics, we’re Muslims, we’re Protestants too
We’re gay and we’re straight, and some come from Peru
Hanoi, Alabama, and Kalamazoo
Those right wing evangelists, they don’t have a clue
Toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a lama
The new king of Scotland is Barack Obama
He’s at the top of the mountain, so let freedom ring
And let’s see oor Barack - highland fling!
Scotland the Brave interlude
In Derry, the Falls and the Shankill Road too
Barack is Irish - he’s black, green and blue
And if those Yankees can vote for that colourful man
There’s hope for us a’ yet, oh Aye “ Yes We Can!”
The O'Learys, the Paisleys, McDonalds, O'Haras
There's no one as Irish as Barack O'Bama
Mick Collins, John Hume and Bob Geldoff’s Mama
The dreams of our fathers was Barack Obama (Snr)
The O'Learys, the Paisleys, McDonalds, O'Haras
There's nae one as Scottish as Barack Obama
Rosa Parks, Dr Arthur, and Jomo Kenyatta
The dreams of our fathers was Barack Obama....
version 2
Let Italy boast of her gay gilded waters,
Her vines and her bowers and her soft sunny skies,
Her sons drinking love from the eyes of her daughters,
Where freedom expires amid softness and sighs.
Scotland's blue mountains wild where hoary cliffs are piled,
Towering in grandeur are dearer tae me,
Land of the misty cloud land of the tempest loud,
Land of the brave and proud land of the free.
Enthroned on the peak of her own highland mountains,
The spirit of Scotia reigns fearless and free,
Her green tartan waving o'er blue rock and fountain,
And proudly she sings looking over the sea.
Here among my mountains wild I have serenely smiled,
When armies and empires against me were hurled,
Firm as my native rock I have withstood the shock,
Of England, of Denmark, of Rome and the world.
But see how proudly her war steeds are prancing,
Deep groves of steel trodden down in their path,
The eyes of my sons like their bright swords are glancing,
Triumphantly riding through ruin and death.
Bold hearts and nodding plumes wave o'er their bloody tombs,
Deep-dyed in gore is the green tartan's wave,
Shivering are the ranks of steel dire is the horseman's wheel,
Victorious in battlefield Scotland the brave.
Bold hearts and nodding plumes wave o'er their bloody tombs,
Deep-dyed in gore is the green tartan's wave,
Shivering are the ranks of steel dire is the horseman's wheel,
Victorious in battlefield Scotland the brave,
Victorious in battlefield Scotland the brave.
version 3
Hark! When the night is falling
Hear, Hear! the pipes are calling,
Loudly and proudly calling, down through the glen.
There where the hills are sleeping,
Now feel the blood a-leaping,
High as the spirits of the old Highland men.
(Towering in gallant fame,
Scotland my mountain hame,
High may your proud standards gloriously wave,
Land of my high endeavour,
Land of the shining river,
Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave.)
High in the misty Highlands,
Out by the purple islands,
Brave are the hearts that beat beneath Scottish skies.
Wild are the winds to meet you,
Staunch are the friends that greet you,
Kind as the love that shines from fair maidens' eyes.
Far off in sunlit places,
Sad are the Scottish faces,
Yearning to feel the kiss of sweet Scottish rain.
Where tropic skies are beaming,
Love sets the heart a-dreaming,
Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.
AYE SCOTLAND.....LONG LIVE SCOTLAND & SERBIA.....

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
