Thoughts of A Fickle Fan.

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 John-Joe sparked a smoke
Cracked a snarky topical joke
Bout Billy Bunter o’ The Arsenal, used play for us,
“As for Over-Eden Hazard at Madrid?
Injured? Who’s that Belgian trying a kid?
Quaffing mayoed pomme-frites, bier and molluscs?”,

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Chipping his half-smoked cancer stick
J-J unwraps a steaming pack a haddock, roe n chips
Six pennyworth a crackling, wally, salt n vinegar pong
Sticking the snout behind his earring
Cracks an ice-cold can o’ Harpic, sneering,
“See Kev, they leave us, their life-style goes Pete Tong”.

Notes

A fictionally fickle Fulham Road friend o’ mine, couldn’t help, but pass caustic comment, (as you do) after less than flattering articles and pictures on former Blue icons, Willian, and Eden Hazard, appeared in the sporting press recently.

AN. Crackling. To die for, pieces a deep-fried batter (a.k.a. heart attack material). Wally. Pickled gherkin. Snout. Prison slang for cigarette. Cancer stick. London term for cigarette. Pete Tong. Rhyming slang for something, indeed anything that can… going wrong.

Peace.

Stay sage. Bode well. Adios ESL.
