I was tempted to list the lyrics to this, but I'll just leave it to Tori Amos covering a Chas n Dave song.
 
Reworked from a little ditty I wrote last year which fell foul of the old 606 mods. To the tune of "These area few of my favourite things"

A Kranjcar bazooka it&#8217;s going to nuke yer
Huddlestone&#8217;s passing and Vedran Corluka
Azza and Baley attacking the wings
These are a few of my favourite things.

Our manager&#8217;s &#8216;Arry our hopes he doth carry
Before his appointment two points was our tally
Hailed as the Messiah the day he arrived.
We went on winning, came 5th and survived.

Young Luka Modric he covers the whole pitch
He nutmegs defenders which makes &#8216;Arry&#8217;s face twitch
An Adebayor hatrick, the crowd when it sings
These are a few of my favourite things

When Wenger is losing I find it amusing
Spurs celebrating and going out boozing
When JD is driving and doing a ton
And Spurs win a cup when the year ends in a one!


Chorus:
When the Goons score, Ledley&#8217;s knees sore
When I&#8217;m feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things,
and then I don't feel so bad.

Rafa&#8217;s though passes the Goons on their arses
Large silver Trophies and brimming full glasses
Beautiful women and creaking bed springs
These are a few of my favourite things

Me getting blotto and Benny Ekotto
I&#8217;d pay for a haircut if I won the lotto
A Danny Rose volley, the victory it brings
These are a few of my favourite things

We dance in the aisles as we&#8217;ve got two Kyles
They&#8217;re here for the future they both run for miles
And if you&#8217;re a Gooner you must now realise
That Tottenham above you is not a surprise

We gave Villa the needle when we signed up Brad Freidel
To Torres and Drogba he&#8217;s proved to be equal
Picked up for nothing, a bit of a heist
He saves far more than the bloke known as Christ.

Our reserve keeper is Gomes Brazil&#8217;s where his home is
He&#8217;s short of hair doesn&#8217;t know where his comb is
In the match warm up from cross bars he swings
These are a few of my favourite things.

Chorus:
When the Goons score, Ledley&#8217;s knees sore
When I&#8217;m feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things,
and then I don't feel so bad.

Mike Dawson&#8217;s heading the goons they are dreading
Gio&#8217;s performance and who he is bedding
A Scott Parker tackle that hurts when it stings
These are a few of my favourite things.

It&#8217;s never been gory the Tottenham story
We won the double and basked in the glory
Now think Tommy Huddlestone without any dings
These are a few of my favourite things.

They&#8217;re no pretenders are our great defenders
Loving girls in black stockings and matching suspenders
Sebastian Bassong and Youness Kaboul
Each can drink 12 pints and both still stand tall

Old Willie Gallas says Wenger&#8217;s a phallus
He missed out on Sandro and young Jermaine Jenas
A clean sheet at home and when the Lane swings
These are a few of my favourite things.

Chorus:
When the Goons score, Ledley&#8217;s knees sore
When I&#8217;m feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things,
and then I don't feel so bad.

Of long boozy binges poor &#8216;Arry he cringes
On winning a trophy the big party hinges
Think Gio and Ledley both spewing their rings
These are a few of my favourite things.

Loanee David Bentley you&#8217;ve got to drive gently
Of Carlo Cudichini I must say lamently
I&#8217;ve been looking for phrases or words that might rhyme
I&#8217;ve now spent six hours and run out of time

Our Russian&#8217;s a Roman a fantastic showman
From 12 yards he&#8217;s lethal it&#8217;s such a good Omen
Beware of his volleys I call them Blitzkrieg
And one day we&#8217;ll win the Premier League!


Chorus:
When the Goons score, Ledley&#8217;s knees sore
When I&#8217;m feeling sad
I simply remember my favourite things,
and then I don't feel so bad.
