Well, we didn’t ask for these, but giving them the oxygen of online exposure has resulted in the below. So here we go again, in the order they arrived…
From Hadley Godden. Tune - Rod Stewart - ’Sailing’ (We admit to tinkering with this one to make it pan better!)…
It’s Arshavin,
It’s Arshavin,
Red of Arsenal,
Russian king.
It’s Arshavin,
Turned the scum down,
He’s a Gooner,
Russian king.
From Adam Murphy. Tune - Boney M – ’Rasputin’ (again)
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was slick and fast and his eyes were set on goal
He joined the Arsenal ‘cos trophies were his aim
Scoring goal after goal at that sh*t-hole called The Lane
He could hit the net with a rocket
Full of power and fire
Give him the ball and he will sock it
Watch the Arsenal go higher
An-drey Ar-shav-in!
He will tear right through your team
And he’ll help us win the league
An-drey Ar-shav-in!
Arsenal’s greatest goal machine.
10 times better than that c*nt Robbie Keane
From James Leslie. Tune - Adam Ant – ’Prince Charming’…
Arshavin,
Arshavin,
Cashley Cole is nothing to be scared of
From Christopher Brennan. Tune – ’Kalinka’…
Christopher says ‘Our version should be sang slowly emphasizing the Ar-Sha-Vin (obviously) and sang over and over each time getting faster.’
Ar Sha Vin
Ar Sha Vin
Ar Sha Vin's a Gooner
He hates Pavlyachenco
And Spurs ‘cos they’re losers
From Christopher Pinckard. Tune - Boney M – ’Rasputin’ (yet again)…
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He played in our midfield and his goals began to flow
Defenders looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Arsenal fans we just smiled into a beer
He controlled the football like Sir Denis
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of poacher
Arsenal had desired
AR AR ARSHAVIN
Russian in the Arsenal team
There was a cat that really was gone
AR AR ARSHAVIN
Arsenal's newest goal machine
It was a joy how he carried on
From Bill MacLachlan. Tune – ’Kalinka’ (again)…
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin
Woooohhhhhhhhhh!
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin,
Ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin ar-sha-vin
