1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The time when all stragglers get a kick up the butt
You’d better move fast fore the window is shut

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 “Monster!” screams Eric Hall as the vultures start to hover
When transfer sharks hone in there’s hardly time to recover

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 It’s open season to turn things around
Buy well and all is well at the ground

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Penny pinching chairman with their Lebanese pound
Buy bad and it’s an epitaph on your grave mound

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Maam! Can I recommend a Ljungberg, a Shevy or a Valente
Or will Baros swap Villa for Levante?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Ribery and Hargreaves, if they come most will be glad
Yet Viduka offered 60 k, it’s all gone a bit mad

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 It takes a wily fox to rejuvenate a depleted squad
To appease irate fans, you’ll need an act of God

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Deadline day sees a flurry of media interest
As the merry go round sees many a chairmen obsessed

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 Owen breaks pool hearts and becomes a Geordie
Tevez and El Jefe join the BNP

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 Will things change? Will tems start to fly
The reality of it all is for many it’s goodbye
