1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 So, December’s here,
United are sitting pretty.
At the top, two points clear,
Celebrated with this ditty.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 “Mourinho, are you listening?”,
So beautifully sung.
“Will you keep the trophy glistening?”,
As we climb up another rung.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 I thought it would take a few seasons
For Fergie to get it right.
I can’t explain the reasons
Why I underestimated this fight.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 It’s obviously way too soon
To start claiming the cup.
Nonetheless, I’m over the moon
That it’s Christmas and nothing’s up.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 This season we’ve been graced
With the return of our shining star.
The one and only, baby-faced,
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Remember we have Rooney who
Is just warming up for the race,
And young Cristiano
Who is far from off the pace.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Then we have dear Paul
Scholes of course with Giggs and Neville too.
The Old Guard strong and yet to fall,
I know they’ll see us through.

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 In short Jose, I’d worry
If I was you, dear friend.
Because we are in no hurry,
We will fight you ’til the bitter end.
