I'm bored so I wrote a song

To the tune of Ol' Blue Eyes' "My Way". If you don't like it, come up with something yourselves or feel free to change some of the "lyrics".

We are the Arsenal, the club we love, the Pride of London
We are the Arsenal, from Highbury and now Ashburton
We are the Arsenal, of Herbet Chapman and Arsene Wenger
And more, much more than this, We Are The Aaaaaarsenal

Yes there were times, when they had two
We needed three, and up popped Kanu
At Stamford Bridge, in pouring rain
And won the League at White Hart Lane
And through it all, the boys stood tall
We are the Aaaaaaaaaaarsenal

Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal
Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenaaaaaa-al
Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal
Arsenal, AR-SE-NAL!!!!

Sorry, creative juices ran out...but I'm still bored - maybe I'll write some more later.

cheers - I just think it would be great to have a great Arsenal anthem other than Good Old Arsenal, which only has one verse and that the prawnies don't even knnow the words to.

nice one, thanks. It's a versatile tune so we can put whatever we want in there and it's emotional and rouusing, like the song the scousers use.

Like this verse alot;

Yes there were times, when they had two
We needed three, and up popped Kanu
At Stamford Bridge, in pouring rain
And won the League at White Hart Lane
And through it all, the boys stood tall
We are the Aaaaaaaaaaarsenal

Couple of suggested changes;

Remember that time, the Chavs had two
We needed three, and up popped Kanu
At Stamford Bridge, in pouring rain
We won the League at White Hart Lane
And through it all, the boys stood tall
We are the Aaaaaaaaaaarsenal

Think eddiemâ€™s version scans better DB10. Great work Eddie, my old manâ€™s team Hearts have a song to My Way & it works a lot better as a football song than some might think.

I made up a Kolo Toure version on here once, but an Arsenal oneâ€™s even better!

Only thing Iâ€™d maybe say to change would be the last line of the 1st verse, something to rhyme with Wenger. Maybe:

â€œâ€¦but more, much more than this, weâ€™re on a beeennnnnderâ€
