Dark side of the Isle – Paul McGrath

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Thrown out by Sir Fergie
Became a Holte end hero
Beckoned the knackers yard
And McGrath hit minus zero

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Curse the dreaded bottle
Suppressed by the Villa Park reign
Irish cordiality meant he’d never
Have to pay for a Guinness again

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 An Orphan from St Patrick’s
Two World cups and Euro eighty eight
Esteem of a million fans
For the all-time Irish great

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Number 7
