With Apologies to Eric Idle.......

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

With Apologies to Eric Idle.......

Post by I Hate Hleb »

Some say that Theo’s bad
He can really make you mad
Alex Song just makes you swear and curse,
When our defending is so dismal
Don't grumble, give a whistle
Just remember with Silvestre things were worse
And...

Always look on the bright side of life (whistle)
At least we’re not in any fi-nancial strife (whistle)

If Djourou seems so rotten
There's something you've forgotten
He likes to laugh and smile and dance and sing,
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just turn on ArsenalPlayer - that's the thing
And...

Always look on the bright side of life... (whistle)
At least we’re not in any fi-nancial strife (whistle)

This season’s been absurd
Top 4 the final word
Said goodbye to all the trophies with a bow,
Forget trying to win, give the players a little grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance at least for now

So always look on the bright side of debt (whistle)
On that score it has been our best season yet (whistle)

Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
The Board a laugh, the team’s a joke, it's true
You'll see it's all a show
Keep on paying when you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you

And always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life (whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life (whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life (whistle)

IHH mate, you really need to get out more or you have far too much time on your hands. Either way you're starting to worry me

Thanks for the concern mate but don't you worry your little head. :lol: Once the tune came into my mind it only took me about 10 minutes to complete the new lyrics. :barscarf: You see that's what us naturally gifted people can do (albeit with a tip of the hat to Marijuana for being a trust-worthy and able assistant :wink:) :lol: :lol: :wink:
