Aussie chants

[.::Stevo::.]

Well the ashes is only two weeks away (yay!) and the aussies and poms will be right at it. Especially in the crowd!!!

Seen a bit on the news that Greg Champion and some other bloke getting together to create a few aussie chants and songs, and ive heard a couple and there brilliant!!

Anyone know the actual lyrics to them? Plus i wonder how they will teach the crowd the songs? Hmm, should be good though.

EDIT: Heres an article i found

There were some on Sky earlier, some trully pathetic ones like:

"You all live in a dirty rotten place, etc"

The brief quotes I've seen have been as woeful as every other chant we've ever come up with, fortunately we don't have to distract ourselves from what's happening on-field like other teams .

Yellow submarine/convict colony has been masterfully changed to "You all live in a rotten, boring place."

Another pearler with "I still call Australia home" - "You whinge and you moan, because you can't call Australia home."

Havnt heard of the "You all live in a rotten, boring place.".

Ah well, we will have something at least.... Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi is gettin a tad repetative lol.

Hope there aren't offensive ones :upray

 

[JamesyJames3]

Who cares if they are offensive? They will only have about 3 songs anyways and can never outsing the Barmy Army.

Ooo Ahh Glen McGrath?

There's a few TISM songs that would make great cricket chants.

 

[Iron-Haggis]

Maybe they should just let TISM play at games, especially a Twenty20. Always an amusing band.

Really I don't know why we're gonna bother with chants. No one does it better than the Barmy Army.

"We all live in Wiltshire stately home, Wiltshire stately homes...."

Its been a long time commin'
To silence all that drummin'
To show them that it wasn't just a dream

They've beaten all the rest you know
And proven they're the best you know
The greatest team to wear the baggy green

Pigeon's pounding down like a machine
Dizzy's scarin' batsmen - lookin' mean
Gilly's gettin' wickets
Punter's clearin' pickets
And Warney's just the best we've ever seen

Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on

Night or day, they're out to make us proud
To keep our flags a-wavin' in the crowd
Even gettin' zeroes
They'll always be our heroes
And keep us singin' come on just as loud

Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on
Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on

See 'em sprayin' leather at the bat
Sweetly crackin' winners through the gap
They're not just gettin' runs
They're out there smashin' tons
Spinnin' big time records back to back

Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on

All summer we'll go floodin' through the gates
To try and get a look at cricket's greats
No matter what the season
We always have a reason
To shout out come on Aussie with our mates

Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on
Come on Aussie, come on, come on
Come on Aussie, come on

I've got that song. By the way that is a song not a chant
