A Song for the Big Fella

Comments (23)

After Saturday's fabulous performance, it struck me that we don't have a chant for Mo the Fro.

Suggestions on lyrics, tune and how we get it to catch on!

Mauro Fellaini, I want that curly hair toooo!

To the..um...’tune’ of the old St Margaret Mary’s infants classic - Michael Finnegan.


We know a man callled Marounane Fellaini

Looks like a twat but he’s very brainy

His napper is envied by Dick Cheyney

Hope he kicks the shite out of big fat Wayne...ee.


(see you at the Grammys!)

Clever Mickey, I like!

How about a rip off of the Paddy Vierra song they used to sing at Arsenal.

Fellaini, oh-ay-oh,
Fellaini, oh-ay-oh,


The afro’s f*ckin class,
He’ll put you on your ass

repeat, and fade...

Can I ask everyone who went on Saturday.

Did you hear the Fellaini Song (the one mentioned by Phil Gray on the first reply) sung by the Gwladys Street v City?

If not what part of the ground were you in?

Would love to hear this ’round Goodison:

To the tune of Greatest American Hero:

Believe it or not,
he’s got afro hair.
I never thought he was worth the fee-.
Winning us ball, on the ground, in the air,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, Fellaini

Back in the late 1960’s I think it was The Hollies had a hit single called Carrie Anne. I think the chorus was something like " Hey Carrie Anne what’s your game now can anybody play ?"I suppose that could possibly be adapted using the words Mouranne instead of Carrie Anne. Sorry I am not enough of a Hollies fan to know the rest of the lyrics !!

When he was at Standard Liege they used to sing one to the tune of Agadoo(shocking I know) which translates went like

Fellani-ni-ni est meilleur que Garbini
Fellaini-ni-ni est un fameux gabarit
A sa gauche, a sa droite, il ramasse tout ce qui passe
Au Standard, c’est le roi, et il chie sur Biglia...

Which translates something like...
Fellaini-ni-ni is better than Garbini
Fellaini-ni-ni is famous for his height
To the left to the right, he wins every ball in sight
At Standard he’s the king and he shits on Biglia

Not sure if we could do anything with that but I’m sure the line ’shits on Steve G' has to go in there somewhere!!

To the classic "How Deep Is Your Love" by the Bee Gees

How big is your Fro
Is your Fro, how big is your Fro
I really need to know
Cos from here it looks so fxxxin’ big
Is it a wig
Don’t cut it off Marouane
Cos we’re all its number one fan!

La La La La, Ohhhhhhh....

Repeat Chorus

Hey lads, the song for the big fella has to be, to the tune of the Addams family.....

He’s better than john terry,
He’s tall and he’s hairy,
He’s really really scary,
He is Marouane Fellaini......

Mike Elbey - the Fellaini song is the one mentioned on the very first reply (to the tune of you’re too good to be true).

The reason why I was asking about where you sat is that that song got very loud in the Gwladys Street. Yet most of the people here obviously didn’t hear it.

We’ve been asking for better acoustics in the Gwladys Street lower yet Everton have never bothered to improve them as they don’t understand/care about the problem. (A similar point was made in an article on here last week by Chris Butler).

To me this very article once again highlihgts the need top improve the acoustics in the Lower Gwladys Street. Is it any wonder some fans think we have no songs while other fans can reel off a few hundred. We simply cannot be heard!

Admittedly this song would only be apropos playing Chelsea.

Directed at Roman A., to the tune of The Beatles’ " You Never Give Me Your Money":

"We’ll never give you Fellaini
We don’t want any of your funny paper"

The tune : Volare.

Fell - aini . .............oh oh
Our Fellaini, oh oh oh oh

He wins the ball on the ground
He wins the ball in the air
He’s the best Belgian you’ve ever found
The Big Fella with the big hair

Fell - aini ............... oh oh
Our Fellaini, oh oh oh oh

The Big Fella with the big hair
And we’d follow him anywhere.

To the tune of I Love You Baby...

He Is Fellaini
He always spots the pass
He Is Fellaini
And he should grow a tash
He Is Fellaini
City ain’t got the cash
Ohh yeeeahh
