Sjung om Mellbergs skägg
Det stora buskaget i ansiktet på vår kapten hyllas
Dave Cooper slår till med lite kreativitet. Texten är skriven i countrystyle, så ni får ha lite Kenny Rogers eller Dolly Parton i bakhuvudet när ni försöker sjunga. Här är Daves hyllning i egna ord:
Well I don't wanna annoy you, or make myself a pest But supporting Aston Villa can sure make you depressed
But I will never allow them to ever get me vexed
Because there's one thing at the Villa that is the very best..
CHORUS
Oh it's long and almost ginger and it sure makes him look weird
And it covers the face of a player very rarely jeered
Facial fuzz that only Dennis has ever really neared
Yes the finest thing at Villa Park is Olof Mellberg's beard!
I don't worry that the share price has sunk so very low
'Cause surely the Goddamn share price is as low as it can go
I realise that for those with shares it really is a blow
But just think of Olof's hairy mush, it will sure give you a glow..
CHORUS
Oh it's long and almost ginger and it sure makes him look weird
And it covers the face of a player very rarely jeered
Facial fuzz that only Dennis has ever really neared
Yes the finest thing at Villa Park is Olof Mellberg's beard!
I realise the league position really should be higher
And Uncle Doug is odious, a slimy loathsome liar
(note to lawyer - can I get away with this)
But one day we'll be able to dance around his funeral pyre
So meanwhile think of Mellberg's mouth, it should really stoke your fire..
CHORUS
Oh it's long and almost ginger and it sure makes him look weird
And it covers the face of a player very rarely jeered
Facial fuzz that only Dennis has ever really neared
Yes the finest thing at Villa Park is Olof Mellberg's beard!
Slide guitar player - go score me a hat-trick boy!! (Instrumental break)
Yes there's things down at the Villa that almost make me cry
A forward line as dodgy as a month old balti pie
But Ollie's hirsute fizzog, would I tell you a lie?
Is something they will never have at that shithole called the Sty
CHORUS
Oh it's long and almost ginger and it sure makes him look weird
And it covers the face of a player very rarely jeered
Facial fuzz that only Dennis has ever really neared
Yes the finest thing at Villa Park is Olof Mellberg's beard!
You may curse the name of Ansell or spit when you hear 'Doug'
But it's okay now boys and girls 'cause we can pull the rug
From beneath their feet, just say to them "See that Olof's mug?"
"Til you can grow a mane like that there's no need to be smug!"
CHORUS (All together now)
Oh it's long and almost ginger and it sure makes him look weird
And it covers the face of a player very rarely jeered
Facial fuzz that only Dennis has ever really neared
Yes the finest thing at Villa Park is Olof Mellberg's beard!
Repeat chorus to fade.
Dave Cooper
