The Queen is visiting an Edinburgh hospital. There's a ward full of patients who she notices are all dressed in street clothes and have no obvious sign of injury or illness. So she goes to greet the first patient, but he just replies
“My heart’s in the Highlands, my heart is not here,
My heart’s in the Highlands, a-chasing the deer.”
Confused, she smiles and moves on to the next patient, wo says
“Some hae meat an’ canna eat, And some wad eat tha’ want it,
But we hae meat an’ we can eat, so let the Lord be thankit.”
Even more confused, she moves on to the next patient who immediately begins to chant:
“My love is like a red, red rose that’s newly sprung in June;
My love is like the melody that’s sweetly played in tune.”
Now very confused, the Queen turns to the doctor and asks, “Is this a psychiatric ward?”
“No, Your Majesty,” replies the doctor. “This is the serious Burns unit........”
Just because I'm paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get me
