I was reading Clarkson in todays Times and he recounted one of his first laugh uncontrollably moments was listening to Jasper Carrot’s Moles routine.
It reminded me of how I used to listen to him on Piccadilly radio late night when he was championed by James Stannage and one of his funniest routines which I don’t think ever made it to disc was about Villa fans. I have posted it before it it is always worth an airing.
I give you Jasper Carrot’s “Aston Villa Football Club Skinhead Supporters Song”.
“Villa, Villa, you are the cream
Villa, Villa you are supreme,
And we’ll support you
Home and away
Cos we’re the villa skins, OK,
With our combined IQ of maybe three or four,
You will hear us roar,
Give us a P
Give us a R
Give us a O
Give us a G
Give us a R
Give us a A
Give us a M
Give us a M
Give us a E
What’s that spell…?
VILLA!”
