Jack Cork chant

[ltSaint91]

Anyone remember that 'Conkers' song from school assemblies?

 

Jack Cork,

Oh his name is Jack Cork,

He is easily the biggest and the best,

 

Jack Cork,

Oh his name is Jack Cork,

When he pulls on the shirt he's like a man possessed,

 

And when he played for Saints,

In 2008,

He was great but he was only here on loan,

Now he's come back to us,

He's on the bus,

He'll win games for us on his own.

 

Also, to the tune of 'Do You Love Me' (

):

 

Do we looove him?

(Yeah we love him)

Do we looove him?

(Yeah we love him)

Do we looove him?

(Yeah we love him)

Nooooow that heeee's a Saaaaaaint

(Saaaaaint)

 

(Cork, Cork)

Yeah he'll tear up the league

(Cork, Cork)

In defence or attack

(Cork, Cork)

He's the one we call Jack

(Cork!)

 

I would give my right arm to see the Northam sing that one.

Perhaps rather than a chant we should have a poem published in his honour in the programme one week. Here's my attempt:

 

An England international called Jack,

is one we all beleived would never come back,

He's come from Chelsea,

Been to Bournemouth and Coventry too,

Leets not forget Scunny and Watford,

and Burnely where he played in claret and blue.

 

But now he's come back,

we're all really happy,

 

When he played for Southampton,

they weren't very good,

Some people were nasty,

and others didn't play like they could.

 

But now he's come back,

we're all really happy,

 

He's a bigger signing than Keegan,

and is really good at football,

perhaps we'll get promoted,

with him playing in midfield.

 

Now he's come back,

we're all really happy

In St Mary's did Jack Cork

A stadium pleasure-dome decree:

Where Solent, the sacred river, ran

Through bridges measureless to man

Down to a sunless channel (sea).

 

So twice five miles of fertile ground

With walls and towers were girdled round:

And here were gardens bright with sinuous rills

Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;

And here were forests ancient as the hills,

Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted

Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!

A savage place! as holy and enchanted

As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted

By woman wailing for her demon-lover!

 

And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,

As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,

A mighty fountain momently was forced;

Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst

Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,

Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail:

And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever

It flung up momently the sacred river.

Five miles meandering with a mazy motion

Through wood and dale the sacred river ran,

Then reached the caverns measureless to man,

And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean:

And 'mid this tumult Saints heard from far

Portsmouth voices prophesying war!

 

The shadow of the stadium of pleasure

Floated midway on the waves:

Where was heard the mingled measure

From the fountain and the caves.

It was a miracle of rare device,

A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice!

A damsel with a dulcimer

In a vision once I saw:

It was an Abyssinian maid,

And on her dulcimer she played,

Singing of Mount Abora.

Could I revive within me

Her symphony and song,

To such a deep delight 't would win me

That with music loud and long,

I would build that dome in air,

That sunny dome! those caves of ice!

And all who heard should see them there,

And all should cry, Beware! Beware!

His flashing eyes, his floating hair!

Weave a circle round him thrice,

And close your eyes with holy dread,

For he on honey-dew hath fed,

And drunk the milk of Paradise.

[Junction 9]

How does that go?

Ooh Aah Just a little bit

Ooh Aah A little bit more

Ooh Aah just a little bit

The Lambert song really was an one off as a very good song.

[the stain]

"More than a midfielder

More than a midfielder to me

 

More than a midfielder

More than a midfielder to me"

 

(To the tune of 'More Than A Woman'. Haven't managed to work Cork's name into the song, though)

[Andy_Porter]

Those dicks in the Santa hats will just go back to chanting Cork in that stupid accent rather than Pork now.

 

I'm honestly not sure which is worse.

[The9]

That is possibly the worst idea that has ever been expressed by any living organism since the world came into existence.

 

Really ? We tried to get "That's the way Pahars Pahars I like it" going for about 2 months in 1999 before giving up.

[hamster]

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

I'm a woman's man, but I love Jack Cork

 

More than a leftback

More than a leftback to mee yeah

 

 

Haven't worked a tune for it yet though.

[Griffo]

Hey hey it's our Corky,

Loved by Southampton fans,

He's gonna be a fookin' legend,

Known all over the land.

 

(To the tune of the second chant on the video)

 

 

More quality from FC United as usual.

If we had a chant like that, I wouldn't want it wasted on a player.

 

Hey hey it's Southampton,

and we're all Southampton fans,

you're never gonna stop us singing,

We're known all over the land

Not bad. It's catchy as **** though, but I don't think anything like it would ever get started.

It's short enough that if only a few people catch on, it will spread
