Flowers and Football Tops Lyrics

Cover art for Flowers and Football Tops lyrics by Glasvegas

SuperAlly "Quite a poignant song. Written from a fathers perspective about a son who has been murdered. Reading the lyrics makes me think of Glasweigan schoolboy Kriss Donald murdered on his way home by an Asian gang in 2003 - the tribute to him was flowers and football tops (and scarfs)."

BrainFreez100 "Genrally in Glasgow when a young male dies (especialy murdered) people as a tribute leave Flowers and Football tops which is where the title comes from. I don't know if this phenomenon is unique to Glasgow or not but it certainly is not unique to the Kris Donald story."

wow...I didn't know that. thanks for posting it guys. this song is so sad.

in the end when he starts singing "You Are My Sunshine" and he changed the words to "I hope you NOTICED how much I LOVED you," I started to cry. I found it surprising that he sang that in this song, but very fitting.

well done Glasvegas.
