to the tune of amore:
when the ball hits the net
its one sure fire bet that its keano
robbie keano
and _when ireland do score
you_'ll hear us all roar, its keano
robbie keano
Hes our all time best
At scoring against the rest, its keano
Robbie keano
will it be doh_erty
to score in gay paris, no its keano
Robbie keano
I think it's best to keep the chants short, simple and offensive...
Especially for Thierry, after he (hopefully) misses a chance:
"Va-va-voom/You're having a laugh!/Va-va-voom/You're having a laugh!"
"Where's your midfield gone? (Where's your midfield gone?) Where's your midfield gone? (Where's your midfield gone?), etc."
Alternatively
"Where's your Zidane/Zizou gone?"
"As-ter-ix is a ho-mo-sexual"
"You're worse than Shamrock Rovers"
"Are you 'Home Farm' in disguise?"
On a more positive note, I was listening to some Christy Moore yesterday
And Michael JacksonKeano, Keeeannno, you're the divil
When you get out on the field
It was a sad day for the Frenchie midfield
When your mouldeds they did feel
It's close to midnight and something evil's lurking in the dark
Under the moonlight you see a sight that almost stops your heart
You try to scream but terror takes the sound before you make it
You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes,
You're paralyzed
'Cause this is KILLER, Killer's night
And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike
You know it's KILLER, Killer's night
He's fighting for the ball just like a Killer, thriller tonight!!
Just don't know why Irish fans and irish people have never adopted this song for the FANs.
I remember barry Mcguigans dad used to send the Kings hall into raptures with this .
Sung by a big crowd it would sound awsome.
and I believe it does have irish origins
what say you all
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so.
And if you come, when all the flowers are dying
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me.
And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
THE WEST’S AWAKE
Trad. Arr. Merry Ploughboys
When all beside a vigil keep,
The west asleep, the west asleep.
Alas, and well may Erin weep,
When Connaught lies in slumber deep.
There lake and plain smile fair and free,
'Mid rocks their guardian chivalry,
Sing oh let man learn liberty,
From lashing winds and crashing sea.
For often in O'Connor's van,
To triumph dashed each Connaught clan
And fleet as deer the Normans ran
Through Curlew's Pass and Ardrahan.
And later times saw deeds as brave,
And glory guards Clanricarde's grave,
Sing oh they died their land to save,
At Aughrim's slopes and Shannon's wave.
And if when all a vigil keep,
The west's asleep, the west's asleep.
Alas and well may Erin weep,
When Connaught lies in slumber deep.
But hark, a voice like thunder spake,
The west's awake, the west's awake.
Sing oh hurrah, let England quake
We'll watch till death for Erin's sake.
Additional verse not recorded.
That chainless wave and lovely land,
Freedom and Nationhood demand.
Be sure the great God never planned
For slumbering slaves a home so grand.
And long a proud and haughty race
Honoured and sentinelled the place.
Sing oh not even their sons' disgrace
Can quite destroy their glory's trace.
You need to start it really low or everyone will sound like a 13 year-old in the middle of their voice breaking when it gets to this part. Great song though, if we could get someone like Johnny Cash (RIP'Tis I'll be heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere) to lead the singing that would be great...
KEANOS there's only 2 Keanos, there's only 2 Keanos.....
Why not make use of the backing music in Paris and sing along - bit of Karaoke if you please.

We have come today from Ireland,
To put one over on the French.
Eurostar, RyanAir and Aer Lingus,
Brought the biggest crowd ever seen.
Brian Kerr is the man for the job
To guide us through Europe and end up in Germany
No more we'll have South Buckets, will the GAA open Croker?
Andy Reid will score again, Robbie Keane will score again
Four Nil, Four Nil, We'll win Four Nil
If not, Two Nil will do.
Who is this guy, Trapper Tony?
A few simple but effective chants!
1. are you ENGLAND in desguise?
2. Stand up for the boys in green!
3. 98, never again! 98, never again! ('havin a laff' tune)
4. It's just like watching Tottenham! (for Va Va Voom and Bobby!)
oh and don't forget to belt out the chorus from Labelle's Lady Marmalade when in contact with any french wannies in the local bars, ya just never know it might work!!

If you all hate the English clap your hands,
if you all hate the English clap your hands,
if you all hate the English,
if you all hate the English,
If you all hate the English clap your hands
*clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
si vous tout détestez l'anglais, battez vos mains
si vous tout détestez l'anglais, battez vos mains
si vous tout détestez l'anglais
si vous tout détestez l'anglais

No doubt the second verse would end up as a farce if attempted!
this bugs me the whole time
people more concerned with the english than looking after our own
WE ARE NOT PLAYING THE ENGLISH ON SATURDAY
ffs support your own team. u have payed your money to follow "your" team, then get behind them.
rant over
has anyone made a song sheet compiling the best chants that were available from this thread ??
whats it worth printing out a few each(if it exists) and distributing them about the planes, trains and automobiles on the trek to paris for more collective harmony?
As well as song's people could maybe take green and a white balloon's with them, thirty thousand odd balloon's getting fired around the place as the team's come on to the pitch will look the biz, seen it done at a lot of game's by the away support, and it does look the part.
Its crazy to see people be what society wants them to be but not me.
