Landon's song

To the tune of:-

"Michael Finegan — he grew whiskers on his chin again..."

There was a young man called Landon Donovan,
Came on loan but then was gone again,
We thank god for Landon Donovan,
Please come back
And play again
for Everton

Any improvements please feel free to add.

Thank you, Landon; you were brilliant.

I had something similar but not as good. I’d sing that! Brilliant.

I’d love to hear Goodison try and sing that in time as well. It would be amazing if we attempted it!

There is a young man Called Landon Donovan.
Number 9 he wore for Everton.
Pissed down rain so he fucked off home again,
Poor cold Landon Donovan
Is warm again

The Americans would sing:

"Let’s go Landon, Let’s go" clap, clap.

Repeatedly. Dependent on their allegiances they insert anything (Red Sox, Patiots, Yankees, Raiders etc etc etc) where Landon is. It would certainly make him feel at home!

Maybe the best chant would be ’Buy Landon Donovan’ repeatedly and hope someone up there is listening.

Take me on a trip, I’d like to go some day.
Keep me at Goodison, fuck LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You’ll be my Everton Number 9.

What about this for King Louis? Please amend/suggest alternatives!

You wear the famous Royal Blue
of Everton, you strike it true
You don’t really care for defenders, do you
You play at Goodison with pride,
You chest it down, and cut inside,
you score and we all praise you, hallelujah

Louis Saha, Louis Saha,
Louis Saha, Louis Saa…aaHaaa…

Should’ve mentioned, the above should be to the tune of Jeff Buckley’s Hallelujah.

As things stand at the moment, surely some variation of The Proclaimers "Letter From America" is a viable choice? " When you go, will you send back a contract from America, Take a look up the flight path, from LA to Goodison". Improvements welcomed.
