Smash the cistern
It's Burns night tonight, so cock up your beaver and celebrate with a wee dram.

I.
When first my brave Johnnie lad
Came to this town,
He had a blue bonnet
That wanted the crown;
But now he has gotten
A hat and a feather, -
Hey, brave Johnnie lad,
Cock up your beaver!

II.
Cock up your beaver,
And cock it fu' sprush,
We'll over the border
and gie them a brush;
There's somebody there
We'll teach better behaviour -
Hey, brave Johnnie lad,
Cock up your beaver!​

Good job this is not a US site or you might get severely reprimanded.

Brilliant. My boss just walked past my desk and I didn't have time to minimise the screen.
My upcoming review might get interesting!
