They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning,
No-one you see, is smarter than he,
And we know Flipper, lives in a world full of wonder,
Flying there-under, under the sea!
Everyone loves the king of the sea,
Ever so kind and gentle is he,
Tricks he will do when children appear,
And how they laugh when he's near!
They call him Flipper, Flipper, faster than lightning,
No-one you see, is smarter than he,
And we know Flipper, lives in a world full of wonder,
Flying there-under, under the sea!

Hmm thanks for reminding me of that little tune - its stuck in my head now!

well S & G havent written ditties like the Mojo chaps - hence the reference to Mojo. Although a footy version of "Feelin Groovy" might be interesting.

I will award a prize to anyone who can produce a Swans song to the tune " the girl from Ipenema"

Here's my attempt......


Tall and blonde and young and gangley
The fullback from Sydney goes running
And when he passes, each player he passes too goes ? ARGGGGGGHHHHH

When he runs, he?s like a giraffe
With only one leg, he makes a cirle
That when he passes, each ball he passes goes OOBOTF

OOB ? but we watch him so sadly
How can we tell him not to play on
When he is outside the boundary

But each week as he takes a handball receive
He stuffs up the disposal like Benny

Tall and blonde and young and gangley
The fullback from Sydney goes running
And when he passes, we smile ? as he doesn?t see Barry (who is free)
(Lewie just doesnt see....who is free.....and move it on quickly....)

Would you need to change it?

"Slow down, you move too fast
Gotta make the morning last
Just kickin' down the cobblestones
Looking for fun
and feeling groovy"

hey ROK, wanna change the Spiderman lyrics to Schneiderman?

Spiderman, Spiderman,
Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web, any size,
Catches thieves just like flies
Look Out!
Here comes the Spiderman.

It's a shame that the Lions don't have Spaanderman on their list anymore. With Spaanderman and Fixter in the same side, Cometti would have had more one-liners than the Comedy Festival.

No boy from Shore should be tributed to.
(I know tributed isn't a word but just had a 2 hour tute. So hush, brain drained.)

speaking of which, did anyone catch Commetti's reference to "Sylvia's smother" in the Melbourne game recently?

[ROK Lobster]

Seeing as there was a simon and garfunkel comparison.

I am a ROK - for crusier

A winters day
On a cricket ground in Sydney;
I play on,
An uncontested mark in the shadow of the Members
Running in to the open goal -
They call me ROK,
Up in the No-o-ble.
I've scored goals,
I wear shorts, short and tighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of handballs; and tackling causes pain.
And the rucking and the roving I disdain.
They call me ROK,
Up in the No-o-ble.

Dont talk of trades,
But Ive heard the words before;
Melbourne's in my memory.
I wont disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never moved I never would have ROOTED A PRINCESS PEOPLE!.
They call me ROK,
Up in the No-o-ble.

I have my looks
And my Bon-Bon to protect me;
I am shielded from the purists,
Running down the wing, getting set to ping.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
They call me ROK
Up in the No-o-ble.

And a ROK runs on by;
And the Noble simply sighs.

The Flipper theme song would be a good one. I just don't have the creativity to do it today.

I started a Schneider song to the Flipper tune a while back, but haven't gotten past the first bit

Yes he's Schneider, Schneider
Faster than lightning
So small it's frightening
But he can kick goals.
