The Michael Owen Show

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The ink is dry upon the page
The date to sign is set
The medical is going well
At least that’s what is said

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Soon we’ll get the soundbites
The newspin and the like
The badge is kissed a shirt is signed
Oh hype oh hype oh hype

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 The Geordies are ecstatic
And they’ll pack St James’s stands
He cost a fortune for the Toon
But now they have their man

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 So welcome home dear Michael Owen
Your England place secure
But how long will it before
You’re back knocking on our door?

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Cynical? perhaps but then
It may well be his dream
Just like the one he had before
And followed off to Real

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 A proven shot of that he is
A striker of renown
He’ll score for you a brace or more
Ask Arsene when he’s round

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 The press have had a field day
The gossips been on fire
Of will he won’t he, where’s he gone?
The circus has arrived

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 So put all rumours back to bed
Conjecture slip away
The Toon have taken off their shoes
To welcome MO, Howay!

Notes

glad the feeding frenzy is over…..for now;)
