1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Oh Bendtner, oh Bendtner, you never let us down,
In the important games, us Arsenal fans never frown,

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Your sheer brilliance in front of goal,
But to be honest, you’re never on a roll,

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 One game you’re good, the next you’re not,
One game you score none, the next a lot,

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 On your good days, you’re like Drogba, you hardly miss,
Your goals – like his are just pure bliss,

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 But on your bad days, how do you miss? You only know that,
And the crowd all shout “My Gran could have scored that!”

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 When you’re subbed, I’m never upset,
Because one too many times you’ve missed the net,

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Sometimes I wish you could be good – but I’m afraid it seems,
That could only happen IN MY DREAMS!

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 You need a decent celebration fast,
Please, try and forget about your woeful past,

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 Try to look ahead to your glory days (if you ever have any),
To when you score goals, you may score many,

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 Hopefully one day, you will go from zero to…
Hero!
