I think, with a new flag and everything, Sunderland AFC has gained enough gravitas to have an anthem. Here is my suggestion, posted on normal 606 a while ago (but edited slightly!) (To 'Bohemian Rhapsody') Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Quinn's magic carpet ride Shows no sign of soon ending. Open your eyes, Look up to the North and see- We were a poor club (poor club) But now we need no sympathy because we're easy come, easy go, In the table quite high, then quite low Goal scored with a beach ball, doesn't really matter to me, to me Niall Quinn, just bought the club, part of a group of Irishmen, But never played for us again, Niall Quinn, Keane had just begun, But now you've gone and picked a Geordieman, (dum, dum) Niall Quinn, ooh Didn't mean to make you cry, If we're not in the Europa League tomorrow, carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters Too late, Steve Bruce has come, Sends shivers down my spine, my voice is aching all the time, Goodbye, Dean Whitehead, You had to go, Got to leave Jones behind and face the truth Niall Quinn, oooooooooh, I don't want to eat humble pie, we have to finish higher than the Mags! (solo) I see a little silhouetto of a man, Steed Malbranque, Steed Malbranque, will you play out on the wing, Titus Brambe and Cattermole, very, very frighttening me Sessegnon (Sessegnon) Sessegnon (Sessegnon), Stephane Sessegnon, and lo, Magnifico-o-o-o Titus, just a poor boy, nobody loved him He was just a poor boy, playing for a poor club, Spare him his life from this monstrosity, Easy up, easy down, Will we let Gyan go? Asamoah! No, we will not let Gyan go Let Gyan go! Asamoah!We will not let Gyan go Let Gyan go! (Will not let Gyan go) Let Gyan go! (Will not let Gyan go) (Never, never, never) Let Gyan go-o-o-o no, no, no, no, no, no, no (Oh Hendo Hendo, Hendo Hendo) Never let Henderson go The Toon army has the devil put aside for me, for me, FOR MEEEEEE! (solo) So, you think you can stone me and spit in my eye? So, you think you can get Bent for free? 18 million, he's never worth 18 million, Just get him out, just get him right out of here (solo) Only Europe matters, Anyone can see, Only Europe matters, Only Europe matters, to me (anyway the club goes) Tshhhhhhhhhhhh!
