Sadly, Hull's own Mike Waterson died two days ago and it's been suggested on CI that we adopt a version(or a part of) his song Three Day Millionaire as our terrace anthem. Why I left school Friday And I started work on Saturday To catch the early tide And be a galley boy's me plan On the fishin' grounds to roam Eighteen hundred mile from home I couldn't give a bugger, I'm a man I shall get to deck a-learnin' It's the bonus I'll be earnin' And the money comes in handy For the old ran tan Brylcreme in me hair Three day millionaire I couldn't give a bugger, I'm a man I sh'll get meself a suit made To show I'm in the fishin' trade I'll put me brothel-creepers* on And swagger when I can All me pots are pint-sized Watch me gettin paralysed To show the younger buggers who's a man And when I get to skipper I'll get married, have a nipper I s'll take the lad to sea wi' me And teach him all I can I'll be a different sort of fella Have a house out in Kirk Ella** And I'll show the bleedin' neighbours who's a man I'll be a different sort of fellow Have a house out in Kirk Ellow And I'll show the bleedin' neighbours who's a man You can download it or listen to a clip on here: http://www.last.fm/music/The Watersons/_/Three Day Millionaire RIP Mike

Unless it's got "nah nah nah nah nah" or too that extent & repeated over and over again it won't take off.
