    I think I got the general gist, lots of drug references and threatening to "do yer ma". It took me a while to realise that he was saying "donkey's hernia" at one point, this seems like a random selection of words (maybe it's a common Glaswegian expression, I don't know.)

    Although I think I understand this sort of speech quite well, me trying to speak like that comes across as very forced. Och aye, min, ah cannie spik like they dee in Glasgow, it's afa hard, etc. etc.

    I cant understand very much of it. It sounds like a neat song and video. I cant even understand monty python.

    In America the rule for rap songs is ,every first line has to have a word that rymes with bitch, Then the alternate lines have to ryme with nxga. Then the third line has to go with finga on the triga. And it builds from there with a few heys and growns and there it is's.
