To 'Rocket Man' by Elton John.
"Tam packed his bag last night pre-game
Zero hour nine A.M.
And he's gonnae be high as a kite on Persil fumes by then
He miss his fork so much, he miss his tufing knife
It's lonely out in East Mains
On such a timeless plight
And he thinks it's gonnae be a long long time
'Til kick off brings him 'round again to find
he disnae wash his breeks that gid at home
Oh, no, no, no.
He's a Hibskit man
Hibskit man burning out his tumble dryer fuse up here alone
And he thinks it's gonnae be a long long time
'Til kick off brings him 'round again to find
he disnae wash his breeks that gid at home
Oh, no, no, no.
He's a Hibskit man
Hibskit man burning out his tumble dryer fuse up here alone
East Mains ain't the kind o place to wash your kit alone
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to wash them if he didnae
And all this Washing powder science he disnae understand
It's just his job 6 days a week
A Hibskit man, a Hibskit man
And he thinks it's gonna be a long long time
'Til kick off brings him 'round again to find
he disnae wash his breeks that gid at home
Oh, no, no, no.
He's a Hibskit man
Hibskit man burning out his tumble dryer fuse up here alone
And he thinks it's gonnae be a long long time
'Til kick off brings him 'round again to find
he disnae wash his breeks that gid at home
Oh, no, no, no.
He's a Hibskit man

Speechless. I hope you know the magnitude of what you've created here
And I think Mr E. John not Mr D. Bowie was responsible for the song in question. But that's just pedantry.Last edited by hibsbollah; 06-02-2018 at 11:15 PM.

You are rapidly becoming my favourite poster with your drug-fuelled songwriting 😂😂
To even come up with something like that is nothing short of a masterclass."Play for the name on the front of the jersey and the supporters will remember the name on the back"

Remember the time when someone actually made a thread about getting him out of the dugout as they thought he was one of the problems with the club.... staggering.

In all seriousness, if it actually happened it would definitely go viral if filmed. Hibs - first club to have a song for their kit man. Though Celtic would almost definitely do it a few weeks later.

That's excellent.
I asked Alexa to play the original so I could enjoy your version along to it.
The pedant in me wants to amend a couple of lines to make them scan better, but I genuinely laughed out loud reading/singing it. Great work.
I wonder if Tam has seen it yet.
Maybe he'll come out appropriately dressed at the Aberdeen game 🚀

I would have enjoyed a couple of lines about his career as a coonsil gardener at princes Street gardens, but it may not scan well. And I'm quibbling. It's already virtually perfect as it is

Great stuff. Imagine the bemusement of the opposition fans and tv viewers if that was belted out.

Umm, you should probably be worrying about how much of something else they have.
