    He's Only A Poor Little Jambo

    New Song sung to the tune of 'He's only a poor little Sparrow' by the Ramblers 1979. The edited bits rhymes with Bright.

    'He's only a poor little Jambo
    All *****y and smelly is he
    You don't want to go
    Where he goes before
    All *****y and smelly is he.
    It's a shame.

    He really should follow the Hibees
    All style and substance are we
    We're clean and we're bright
    we don't smell like *****
    A poor little Jambo is he
    Its a shame.

    I always wonder what possesses people to apply their perceived lyrical gifts to football songs.

    The results are, almost without exception, appalling.

    Reminds me that I saw this:-

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obit...-obituary.html

    Sure there was a Hibs version but can't recall precisely.

    Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury
    Shanks said no, I don't think so
    But I've heard of the mental Hibees

    With all due respect I think my 3 year old grandson could do better than that.

    Said Jambo stinks as much as the song itself

    Still better than anything I can come up with though to be fair.

    They shafted so many, poppies and all,
    They have no shame even after their fall.

    Horrible club with horrible fans,
    Thrashing themselves over some bat called Anne.

    Their time will come, when things will catch up,
    And us all the Hibees will be laughing like ****! 😁👍🏼

    I just wanted to add another piss poem since I'm doing nowt else tonight.
