Ohhh-De To Be a Gooner

Well done Arsenal, we DID secure fourth place In Europe's elite we've saved some face Though we sold our rivals the title race With that sweet spot on van pursy's lace We left it late, but what a run As tottenham's hotspur was coolly out gunned Those sad fans looked duly stunned Less appeal for their transfer fund Our cash stacks high, though it's been so dry Through thick and thin We're Arsenal til we die A summer spree, we need to buy Gotta splash the cash or players pass us bye Please Arsene don't be a gooney By signing bloody rooney The stupid oafish buffooney And sex crazed looney So Arsene don't lose your head And take us in the red Why not try and buy Benteke instead His boots ain't gettin' covered in lead Or gettin' jumpy rumpy in any old tarts bed Dear Arsene(who art in heaven) please heed these words I've said Some might say, we punch above our weight Pundits and rivals they often slate Being a gooner can at times frustrate Long years since a trophy, we've now hit eight (too) So lets get all excited and thrash damn united Determined nitty gritty lets trash up the city Beat the wealthy playin' stealthy a smash and grab at chelsea All they'll see is blurs when we clash with spurs Highs and lows is the way it goes Don't let united rub it in our nose Give em a race and keep em on their toes And come of end of the season, well.....who knows? Might end up with a trophy to show!! ©John-Ovan.P.Hull

That is soo nice to hear, normally i get told I have no rhythm, but i like to think i do, it's just i don't like the songs every other muppet seems to dance to!
