We're from the Kippax Street and we are magnifique ....can't remember the rest.

We are the Kippax St
and we admire defeat
when it comes from the boys
who play in blue and white.
na na na na na na
na na na na na na (sang clapping hands together)


Always though it was abar defeat.
Never understood what it meant.
 
Circa 1990 : let's all 'ave a disco let's all 'ave a disco na na na na etc.
followed by lots of pogo-ing at the top left hand side of the kippax whilst wearing an inspiral carpets or northside t-shirt
 
It helps if people put the title of the tune that these deathless lyrics are sung to. (e.g. "We all hate reds and reds and reds and reds" etc. to the Dam Busters march by Eric Coates, or "We hate Nottingham Forest, we hate Liverpool too" sung to the Pomp and Circumstance march No 1, aka Land of Hope & Glory, by Edward Elgar.)
I don't know if anyone has mentioned the one by Elias and his Zigzag Jive Flutes, "Tom Hark", with our words "United sing, we don't know why, cos after the match, they're gonna die".
Another from the 60s "Lots of lads & lasses there, all with smiling faces, ganning along to Mai-n-e Road....to see Joe Mercer's aces", sung to the tune of "Blaydon Races".
Another from the 65-66 promotion season - "Going up to Division One, Allelujah, Johnny Crossan will take us there, Alle- looooooo - ya", to the tune of "Michael row the boat ashore".
Another one based on "Son of my Father" - "Oh, wanky wanky, wanky wanky wanky wanky Stapleton"( in response to Utd fans' "Oh Frankie Frankie....)

And of course the 1966 hit by Sandpipers, "Guantanamera", spawned any number of songs by every club's fans ("One Gary Owen, there's only one Gary Owen". Some names didn't fit, though, e.g Neil Young, Shaun Wright-Phillips. "One Buster Phillips" does scan, though. Thank God there was only one of him. Or one Gerry Creaney.
 
And another I'd forgotten - "Sha La La La Lee", by the Small Faces, ...."Sha La La La Summerbee..."
 
To the tune of 'Excerpts from a Teenage Opera'.

When we played Leeds with Jack Charlton in the team...

Big daft Jack
Big daft Jack
Is it true what people say
You are a t**t?

And when we played Liverpool...

Roger Hunt

Is it true what people say
You are a [I think you will all know the next word!]
