Living Doll, pasty poms
So Australia’s throng of fans, cheerily known as the Fanatics, have a songbook for the Ashes to combat England’s notoriously boisterous and equally cheery Barmy Army
So Australia’s throng of fans, cheerily known as the Fanatics, have a songbook for the Ashes to combat England’s notoriously boisterous and equally cheery Barmy Army. The Courier Mail have a list of songs England can expect to “enjoy”, including:
Monty Panesar's Useless
Tune: My old mans a dustmanMonty Panesar useless, a poor old English chap & when he's not spin bowling, he's visiting the quack. He's useless in the covers, he's useless in the slips And when he straps the pads on, he'll pass out with the yips
And...
Ode to a British girlfriend
Tune: Living Doll, Cliff RichardGot myself a yawning, boring, pasty, nagging, whinging pom Got to do your best to leave her just cause she's a whinging pom She's got a lazy eye & big fat thighs from all those chips & pies She's not the only boring, pasty, nagging, whinging pom
Oh dear. No word yet from the Barmy Army and what their song list might be…
