Fat control to major sheeds

Fat control to major sheeds

Take your aggro pills and put your helmet on

(Ten) Ground control (Nine) to major Tom (Eight)

(Seven, six) Commencing countdown (Five), engines on (Four)

(Three, two) Check ignition (One) and may gods (Blastoff) love be with you

This is Fat controller to major Tom, you've really made the grade

And the papers want to know whose Dad you'll get next year

And Eddie's gone all weird

Now it's time to leave Blacktown if you dare to play a game

This is major Sheeds to Fat control, I'm stepping through the door

Oh no all the stars are floating away

And the boys have said they won't stay

Here am I sitting in a S#*! can far from AFL land

Tom's got all the loot there's nothing I can do

I'm past one hundred thousand years of age, I'm feeling very thick

And I hope Gubby knows what to do

Tell Sculls I love him very much, even though we have never met

Fat control to major Sheeds, all the cap is spent on Fill's pies

Can you hear me, major Sheeds?

Can you hear me, major Sheeds?

Can you hear me, major Sheeds?

Can you...

Here am I sitting in S#*! can in NRL land

No money left for the boys and there's nothing I can do.

Nothing I can do …..

Nothing I can do ….

Oh Tom not you too…..

(edit: fix my poor knowledge of where GWS is based)

 

Nicely done :-)

We should get David Costabile (aka Gale Boetticher) to sing that song in front of a series of space-related images. That would really get our message through.

 

Very clever stuff Robbie. I like the connection between Sheedy, the Martians and GWS. All totally fanciful.

It would be a good idea not to ask me to sing!

(other than a grand old flag because I dont care who hears me sing that, hopeful i sing it more often next year.)

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
