Arshavin needs a song?

Post by darkprincess »

I think he deserves a song now.

My starter for 10 is:-

Arsh-arsh-arshavin
Russian player in our team
He is the best that we've ever seen

(to the tune of Boney M's Ra-ra-rasputin.)

Any other thoughts?

Rip off of an old hleb one but (TUNE OF ADAMS FAMILY):

HE'S BLONDE HE'S QUICK HE'S TRICKY

HE LIKES TO TAKE THE MICKEY

HIS WIFE IS A BIT LIPPY

HE'S ANDREY ARSHAVIN :barscarf: :barscarf:

Considering he has been the saviour of our season, how about this to the old 'Ian Wright My Lord' melody:

Ar-sha-vin, my Lord
Ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin, my Lord
Ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin, my Lord
Ar-sha-vin,
An-drey Ar-sha-vin

It's a familiar tune and even the simpliest amongst us should be able to remember the lyrics!! :lol: :lol: :wink:

He scored 4 goals to sink the Scouse - Andrey Andrey,

Not once, not twice, not even thrice - Andrey Andrey,

Just like Thomas in '89

He charged through the midfield to shoot them down

Andrey Arshavin, Arsenal's 23 :barscarf:

Has to be the Boney M "Rasputin" tune surely! A few people suggested that when we first bought him - think Kevinho was the first (?)!

Here's the link to the song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvDMlk3kSYg .

Personally I reckon we should sing the few lines before the chorus as well, starting from 1:22 in the clip, the bit that goes:

He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

Ra-Ra-Rasputin...


And here's my version:

He is one top f*cking Russian geezer
Full of ecstasy & fire
Even back-lines tight as Ebenezer
Cant stop our live-wire

Ar-Ar-Arshavin
Russia’s greatest goal machine
He wears the canon & the Arsenal red
Ar-Ar-Arshavin
He is Gooner as you’ve seen
Give him a sniff & he’ll leave you dead


:oops: Ebenezer line's a bit shit, might try & think of a better one later.

Just changing that 1st bit to:

He is one top f*cking Russian geezer
Mancs, Mousers, Chavs & Scum beware
Four goals at Anfield was just a teaser
You aint got a prayer (or… none of your c*nts compare)

Ar-Ar-Arshavin...

Good effort IU4GN, but I fear that might be a bit too complicated for some of our 'singers'!! :oops: They might also find the melody difficult to keep in unison. Something simpler (like my suggestion? :wink: ) is required. :lol: :wink:

Probably true IHH, one of the reasons I thought we should sing the first bit is so that at least everyone would join in the main bit in unison! A bit like how the mousers sing the 7 Nation Army tune with no words first before they all join in the Ja-vi-er Mas-che-ra-no bit.

Something simpler will have to do. Still, I’m afraid your Kumbaya song will forever be associated with the legend that is Chris Kiwomya! :wink:

I wrote this before (you said it was rubbish then too :oops: ) - its simple anyway.

To the tune of I am sailing.....

I am Gooner, Andrey Gooner,
I am Gooner, from overseas,
I am Gooner, Super Gooner,
I am Gooner, twenty three. (or I scored 4 instead of 3).........

I'll get my coat..... :wink:

Adams Family tune:

We should have got him sooner
He told us "I am Gooner"
He'll make your bottom smoother
He's Andrey Arshavin
