In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
If you're looking for trouble, you're in the right place
Don't look at me like that, or I'll headbutt your face
I'm a mean mother-fucker, I was born that way
And just because I wear a skirt, don't think I'm fucking gay...
Cos I'm an Evil Scotsman, and Jimmy is my name
I'm a sheep-shagger from Aberdeen and causing pain is my game...
Now if you're a woman, married or not
I'll take all your kit off, and I'll dive in your mott
I'll take your legs, and spread them wide
And then I'll put a wet-suit on and shag you from inside...
I'm an evil scotsman, and my name is Jock
And the girls are all gaggin' for a portion of my 10 inch cock
Yes I'm an Evil Scotsman and my name is Jock
I've got one hand in my pocket and I'm playing with my 10 inch cock
I don't care where you come from, if you're big or you're small
I've fought the best, and I've beat them all
If you're English or Irish, you wont have to die
But if you are a German you can kiss your arse goodbye...
I'm an Evil Scotsman, and Jock is my name
If you don't like the rules don't play the fucking game
Yes I'm an Evil Scotsman, my name is Jock
And the girls are just dying for a portion of my 10 inch cock

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
