City staff serenading Elton John!

[jonah62]

Elton is a strange looking fellow

I imagine his arse looks even stranger
Bit like a wilting Cauliflower

 

[Corky]

He could play himself on South Park.

 

[Gray]

Elton is a strange looking fellow

He has been through a lot, great performer though.

 

[Keeper!]

He has been through a lot, great performer though.

A lot has gone through him *allegedly ;)

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
We come from, Stockport, Salford and even Hyde
We don't have much money but, if we did
We'd follow you everywhere, with our love to give

If I was a scouser, but then again no
Or a man who shits himself at the side of the road
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do

Our gift is our song and
And this one's for you
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is, while you're in the world

Bit daft for the first 2 bits, but the fans could definitely sing "I hope you don't mind" without changing anything and it would track very well.

Man who shits himself at the side of the road hahahah

 

[Bluesince1979]

A surreal moment in life for all those there i imagine

 

[Bluearmy]

The shits himself at the side of the road line could quite easily have come from the pen of Bernie Taupin.

Uncanny

Top drawer that.
'Burnage, Longsight and even Hyde' would be more Manchester

The areas of Manchester are pretty arbitrary tbh, Stockport was for the lols though and Salford is home which is why they went in there.

But cheers, it was knocked together pretty quickly. I would love the city fans to at least sing an unchanged version of your song to the players in Saturday though

It's a little bit funny, UEFA's already tried
100 plus charges, based on nothing but lies
We've earnt all our money, with nothing hid
We were too strong for Arsenal and Real Madrid

100 goals and points, something they couldn't do
You see, we've forgotten if they were red or were blue
9 Premier League clubs and the letter they signed
Couldn't compete on the pitch so they no longer tried

And we will tell everybody this is just wrong
Media collusion with strange goings on
Corruption in plain sight, corruption in plain sight, City know how it works
How wonderful life is,
We're The Best Team In The World

Man who shits himself at the side of the road hahahah

Had me trying to hold my laughter in, in the office! Class

Manchester City players and staff heard singing they "don't have much money" at the airport after FA Cup victory despite being one of the richest football clubs in the world

- The Guardian

 

[Spurs quarter 69]

Lot of time for Elton, stayed in the UK in the 70s while a lot of rock stars fled the country to evade taxation. Watford fans were class at the cup final unlike our neighbours, dippers and Villa. Good luck to the lad and his team.

Fuck the Guardian, do they not realise Elton Jon and Bernie Taupin worth a few bob themselves.

“And you can tell everybody
This is the song
It maybe quite simple but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t, I hope you don’t mind, if I put down in the words.
How wonderful life is when City’s in the world”

Would make a class chant on the terraces that.

Great one, as my sister has just sang, “how wonderful life is while Pep’s in the world”;)

Watford fans and Sunderland were by far the best we have seen at Wembley.

On a family road trip this week so not got my normal radio shows on.

Had the misfortune of listening to dave berry on absolute radio.
Convo with his side kick went something like this;

“So the city team met elton john at the airport?”
“Yeah, was it coincidence or did city hire him?”
“Oh , no coincidence , they hired him. They hired him to meet the players. But when you have as much money as city you can buy who you want”

I mean, what the fuck?
Mrs bollocked me for swearing at the radio
