Bring me Roly
in your smile,
Bring me Dura
all the while,
In this world where we live
there should be more Brockie-ness,
So much joy you can give
to each brand new bright tomorrow,
Make me Ifill through the years
never bring me any tears,
Let your Moss be as warm
as the sun from up above,
Bring me Victory, bring me Glory, bring me third!

Christmas no 1?
I don't know why, but when I started reading it (before I clicked on the youtube link) I thought it was to The Pogues Fairytale of New York...
So... that got me thinking
Note, I'd like to change the Chorus not to say "boys", but to find a word that scans that doesn't exclude the women in the zone... suggestions welcome. (For now I have left it as boys).
We've been searching for an anthem... maybe this could be the one we adopt?
As usual, input, edits, improvements suggestions are welcomed...
Original Lyrics: Proposed Fever Version:
They've got cars big as bars We've got guts big as cars
They've got rivers of gold We've got stripes of gold
But the wind goes right through you But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand When you first brought me here
On a cold Christmas Eve On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me Victory was waiting for me
You were handsome We were winning
You were pretty We played pretty
Queen of New York City In our windy city
When the band finished playing When the Nix finished playing
They howled out for more We howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging, Phoenix flags were swinging
All the drunks they were singing Yellow Fever all singing
We kissed on a corner We were pissed on a corner
Then danced through the night Then danced through the night
The boys of the NYPD choir The boys of the Yellow Fever choir
Were singing "Galway Bay" Were singing home and away
And the bells were ringing out And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day On Nixmas day
You're a bum Roar were done
You're a punk Roar were sunk
You're an old slut on junk Roar's like Muscat on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot He's a scumbag, a maggot
You cheap lousy faggot He's a cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God it's our last I pray God it's his last
The boys of the NYPD choir The boys of the Yellow Fever choir
Still singing "Galway Bay" Were singing home and away
And the bells were ringing out And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day On Nixmas day
I could have been someone First half of the Fever: We could have beat someone
Well so could anyone Second half of the Fever: We can beat ANYONE
You took my dreams from me Second half of the Fever: Nix gave our dreams to us
When I first found you Second half of the Fever: When we first found you
I kept them with me babe First half of the Fever: We keep them with us now
I put them with my own First half of the Fever: We've made them all our own
Can't make it all alone Everyone together: Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you Everyone together: We've built our dreams around you
The boys of the NYPD choir The boys of the Yellow Fever choir
Still singing "Galway Bay" Were singing hom and away
And the bells are ringing out And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day On Nixmas day
P.S. I copied all this so go copying!!!! you cant use it to put on other topic but can't tell that these are mine.
I've never understood the British fascination over which song is No. 1 in the charts at Christmas. Just saying.
