Guys,
I can exclusively reveal that the search for a song for Pellegrini has been resolved by none other than yours truly.
Firstly we must look at the requirements and ensure they have been matched ...
1) Well known tune - CHECK
2) Simple words that a five year old can remember - CHECK
3) Words rhyme and fit the tune - CHECK
4) Original - POSSIBLY
5) Short like the Mancini song - CHECK
6) Is now stuck in my head - CHECK
So here goes, to the tune of Rod Stewarts "If You Want My Body" ...
Manuel Pellegrini,
Ge-nius from Chile,
He's an engineer, you know-ow-ow!
Manuel Pellegrini,
Came to manage City,
Pellegrini - whoah-oh-oh!
(Repeat)
No need to thank me.
And once set in, we can add further verses ...
Manuel Pellegrini,
Makes us score at least three,
C'mon City we want more.
