Season 2011-12
The Mail Bag
New Strac Song
I went to the match last week against Villa and the atmosphere in the Gwladys St was the best for a long time so I thought I'd do my best to see if we can build on this.
I started simply with the chorus which would be a good chant for Denis when he starts banging them in... It ended up a bit more than that.
As we don't have many songs, this is one to break up the tedium of "Everton, Everton, Everton" and "Kopites are Gobshites." I know there's others but we do need more variety.
There was a small group of people trying the Fellaini one which I'd like to see more people get behind too. Marouane should have his own song in my opinion anyway.
We used to sing songs with lots of our players' names in to celebrate them. Why not do it again with this team? They deserve it.
I'll probably get laughed out of town by some of the cynics on here but I don't care if I'm honest. I'm just trying to give us a song that's ours. (Hopefully no-one else uses this one anyway.) I feel this is one that will be great to sing in a crowd and go mad too. Could be a possible anthem if everyone was to try it a few times and pass it on.....
In the words of Kevin Keegan, I'd love it, Love it if someone started singing this on Saturday! Even in all likelihood that it will only be the chorus if and when he scores!
To the tune of I predict a Riot....
We love Jack, Barkley, Fellaini, Gueye, Coleman and Bainsey, They are our future I tell thee. So please don't go leave us like Rooney,
Howard, Jags, Drenthe and Ossie, Distin, Nev, Louis and Timmy, Kopites are gobshites I tell thee and we love Stracqualursi
Lar-lah-ah, lala la la la la la la Ah-ah-ah, la la lalala la la la
Denis Stracqualursi, Denis Stracqualursi Denis Stracqualursi, Denis Stracqualursi
Bet you can't get the chorus out of your head! I can't stop humming it! Denis Stracqualursi, Denis Stracqualursi. Let's hope he's as good as his YouTube videos look and we're singing this song home and away when he scores!

Don't cry for me Stracqualursi....
Come forth and score us a goal.
I've seen a two year old compose a more catchy tune whilst simultaneously cracking himself over the head with a rattle.
It can't be that hard can it? Fuck it, let's have a go.
I suggest a jaunty little number sung to the tune of that shite old 'Shake & Vac' tv ad:
"The girls fear Denis Straq, because he looks like that. Denis Straq, were your parents closely related? Is that why you look like that?"
I've never heard of it
Is it by one of them shouty modern groups you hear all the time on karaoke like Your Socks Are On Fire, You Make Me Feel Like A Nun etc?
Tevez, weve got a massive Tevez, his name is fucking Denis, weve got a massive Tevez (sung to blue moon)
Don't recall all that much about the late 60s to be honest - all a bit of a haze, apart from wonderful memories of a great Everton side that won buggar all from 66 to 70 but, bloody hell, what a joy to watch
The king of makin' `em up in the Street End was Big Freddie Armstrong; he would take whatever was catchy in the charts and Evertonise it
Straaac - qua - lursi,
Der Der Der Der Der Der
And so forth. Nice and simple.
Almost as bad as singing "What's it like to lose a war..?!"
I must admit we do need some new songs, I'm a bit bored of the "Kopites are gobshites" and the usual "Everton, Everton" when we take a corner.
Hope we come up with some new chants soon so we can all get behind the team. Also, when was the last time we REALLY out sung the opposition???
Everton are the team to follow,
'Cos Ross Barkley's much better than Mikel Arteta,
He's the best little Scouser we know.
Although if you drop either the word "Ross," or "much," it would flow much better, and be easier to trip off the tongue.
Back to Straq, Dan's probably got it right. I just hope we don't act like Man Utd fans à la Heinze, and just scream "Argentina! Argentina! Argentina!"
I'd still like to hear 'Denis Denis' by Blondie modified though...
Who's that lying on the floor?
It's Anichebe on his back
Because he is a load of cack
And he will be starting many more.
I think the first 4 lines are good with the last line being " Denis, Denis, now you are a Blue".
If some one can change the French to a bit of Spanish further in the song and we may have a hit! Go for it boys!
Oh Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis doo-be-do, I'm in love with you.
Denis Denis, oh with your eyes so blue...
Denis Denis, I've got a crush on you.
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you.
Oh when we walk, it always feels so nice
and when we talk,it seems like paradise
Denis Denis I'm so in love with you.
You're my king and I'm in heaven every time I look at you!
When you smile it's like a dream...
And I'm so lucky 'cause I found a boy like you!
(Denis Denis, oh won't you hold me tight?
Denis Denis, please can we kiss all night?
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you.)
Denis Denis, avec vos yeux si bleux, (With your eyes so blue,)
Denis Denis, Je pense toujours à nous. (I'm always thinking about us.)
Denis Denis, Un baiser profond qui durer jamais. (One deep kiss that will last for ever.)
Denis Denis, Je suis si fou au sujet de vous. (I'm so crazy about you.)
Denis Denis, Veuillez m'embrasser ce soir. (Please kiss me tonight.)
Denis Denis, Un baiser profond qui durera toute la nuit. (One deep kiss that will last all night.)
One Tim Cahill,
One Tim Cahill,
There's only one Tim Cahill,
And he plays in midfield in the Royal Blue of Everton,
There's only one Tim Cahill.
Repeat over and over....
My names pronounced 'strangleaturkey',
Truth is Ive always been a toffee
All through Gimnasia, my time at tigres,
I was on toffeeweb, slagging kenwright off.
Brian Waring (24) brilliant comment!
Please score for me Stracqualursi,
The truth is we have no money,
So you're a freebee, your eyes are creepy,
you'd better get used...
to hoofball quickly!
repeat and fade...
One Timmy Cahill
One Timmy Cahill
There's only one Timmy Cahill, its true
And he jumps in the box like a little blue kangaroo
And bangs one in the net for the boys in Blue
ad infinitum
Too much free time on my hands today, and going purely on A-Level Spanish memory, I've taken a stab at it for you..
Con sus ojos tan azules. (With your eyes so blue.)
Siempre, estoy pensando en nosotro. (I'm always thinking about us.)
Un beso profunda que durara para siempre. (One deep kiss that will last forever.)
Estoy tantisima loco por ti. (I'm so crazy about you)
Esta noche, besame por favor. (Please kiss me tonight.)
Un beso profunda que durara todo la noche. (One deep kiss that will last forever.)
Sadly, I can't imagine the Gwladys Street joining in though..
"Please score for me Stracqualursi
The truth is, we need the three points
All through our history
Centre-forwards scoring
We kept the faith
Shooting from distance
"
I very much doubt Denis knows the tune of Rule Brittania and probably doesn't care as long as we sing his name!
Don't cry for us Stacqualursi
We ask only for a striker
To score a hattrick - or one will do
And then you know we all will like 'yer.
Thinking cap now on for the next verse !
Don't make us cry Stracqualursi.
"His name is massive Denis,
He's uglier than Tevez
He scores with lots of headers
Its Stracqaulurserrriiiiiiiiii!"
Everton is the team to follow
cause there's nobody better than
Royston Drenthe
He's the best little dutchman we know.
- I know too much time on my hands !!!
Fuck me!
(and it STILL doesn't scan).
Consider yourself 'laughed out of town by one of the cynics on here'.
Btw, Kevin Hudson (1) - nail, head etc.
Apparently, "I Predict A Riot" was a tune made famous by a popular beat combo called The Kaiser Chefs,or something similar, who were all followers of that cook type chap, Jamie Oliver. Quite a catchy tune, too, if memory serves me right.
Hope this helps.
Don't cry for us Stracqualursi,
You know that we need a striker,
Just score a hat trick, a goal or two,
For sure you know, we're gonna like 'yer.
Actually a pigeon just landed on my window sill - life's a bit slower here in South Devon - with a message from chairman Bill and a promise that if all of Gwladys Street sings my verse at the next home game he'll put on a special production - featuring us of course - and he'll put us on the stage. I did'nt look at the small print but I imagine he means the Landing Stage !
I would go with:
Go score for us Stracqualursi
and then we will always love you
score through the hard times
score with persistence
I don't know how the tune goes after that so I would just start the chant again.
We don't need no ball control
No joined up football
Down at Finch Farm
Critics leave our Moyes alone
Hey! Critics!
Leave our Moyes alone
All in all it was one more year of hoofball
All in all it was year after year of hoofball
As I'm sure you know, it's tough being a style guru these days
David S - how is Fred? I hear he had a bad do a year or so back
This is the Himno Peronsita which is sung at virtually every football ground in Argentina (with different words of course). It's a real "hairs on the back of the neck" job when done properly. The only obvious hook in the lyric is "Perón, Perón" which could scan as "El Everton".
We all seen his postal area albeit not his birthplace, so why point it out? Shall I put down where I live and from so that you can type 'scouser'? and nail, head?
Not sure if they're the Boche or not, but I'm sure I saw one of them in those helmets with a point on the top. They do a lot of shouting.
And they probably need a good wash. Or a spell in the army, that'd sort them out.
Erm. Maybe not the army. Don't want any more of that unpleasantness do we?
You really not familiar with Wooly backs? Took this from the 'urban dictionary' just for you:
A wool is short for the Liverpool term Wooly Back which is a derogatory expression for people from lancashire and cheshire, originating from the early 1900's when the population of lancashire used to wear a form of sheepskin coat and was considered to be a sheep shagger by scousers.
This of course has not changed much, except the lancashire and cheshire fashion sense has got worse
The usage of the term "wool" was simply an observation that Nick's idea is something I might expect to see play well at either the DW or Reebok Stadium, but not at Goodison.
Please forgive my "school yard sociology." Still waiting for God or Darwin to Fed-Ex my opposable thumbs in the post.
The truth is we're fuckin desperate
All through the season start Stracqualursi
Otherwise it's Anichebe
Give us an S....
The truth is our fans are arsey
You will get slagged off, upon this forum
If every game you don't score some...
Then repeat until he does.

My particular favourites are his Seamus Coleman, Leighton Baines, Tim Cahill, Duncan Ferguson and (not so much now) Yakubu songs.
They are hilarious!
Royston
Royston, Royston
Royston, Royston
Royston
Royston Drenthe!
To the tune of Paparrazzi by Lady Gaga:
We're your biggest fans
Even though you're fucking ugly
Stracqua-Straqua-lursi.
I win on the Denis shouts boys.....massive tune, everyone knows or has heard it (even if they dont like it), plus it fits the syllables perfectly. Just listen to the opening melody and think of the words:
Again it's: We're your biggest fans
Even though you're fucking ugly
Stracqua-stracqua-lursi.
Send the check in the post gents, and give Mr Cowell my number.
Repeat
Score a fucking goal
or we'll stick you on the dole
We're your biggest fans
Even though you're fucking ugly
Stracqua-stracqua-lursi.
finish.
Had to sing quiet or the missus will belt me but you should get the melody and the timing.
Copy and paste this link:
http://soundcloud.com/you/tracks
It would sound better with 30 odd thousand Blues singing along, and I guess my version sounds a bit Homme because of the whisper but it fits perfect and you wont get better.
One last time:
We're your biggest fans
Even though you're fucking ugly
Stracqua-Straqua-lursi.
Score a fucking goal
or we'll stick you on the dole
We're your biggest fans
Even though you're fucking ugly
Stracqua-stracqua-lursi.
I'll be well gutted if doesn't take off.
Dont think Tony Hibbert will be happy having is song hijacked!
Da dah da dah da (Heartbeat theme tune)
Even all you oldies must remember that show. The one where Greengrass was an endless robbing shithouse
When the ball gets smashed into the back of your net, Stracqualursi.
Oooh, Bainsey, Bainsey
Bainsey, Bainsey!
Oooh, Bainsey, Bainsey
B-Bainsey, Bainsey!
duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh
and so on
Or should I say 'I thee agree duh duh duh..'
The wandering tribes of WSAG are definitely having trouble finding a new home.
Next thing it'll be favourite crisps and naming five types of cheese.
The "I tell thee" line is a direct quote from the Kaiser Chiefs song the original poster makes reference to.
Don't injury thyself while dismounting from thine high horse.
a bit more Toffeeweb for you Eugene?
Less of the old fart, shitferbrains.
Boby Latchford walks on water na na na na naaaaa na na na na.
Everton Everton Everton.................
Now. Back to me cryochamber.
I've got it now - they're South African - I saw them in Soweto in the 70s; didn't realise they'd make records/CDs/mpthings
Well we're at it - remember Tudor Crisps? Wyyy Aye man, a fiv -nil awee win at Arsnul
(grabs plums, thrusts hips).
Noel (80) - In dumbing down, thine cup art full, cease behaving like a wool.
Ste (81) - Can you write in caps please? (peepers not what they were).
By the way, to all you young'uns, remember this about us oldies.
We can't die young!
Stracqualursi straca Stracqualursi,
Stracqualursi straca Stracqualursi,
Stracqualursi coming up the Mersey,
Oh you straca Stracqualursi straca Stracqualursi we love you
And o straca Stracqualursi straca Stracqualursi what we`d do,
Near, far, anywhere you are, we travel to see you,
strac strac Stracqualursi, we`re with you to the end,
strac strac Stracqualursi, our Argy Bargy Friend!!... Oi!!
"Hit the road, Stracq"......only joking!
He was the last one on the shelf
But his goals you will not see
Moyes will play Anichebe
If I got me boots I'd score more goals meself
or
We've got a striker 'Stracqualursi'
He needs plastic surgery
Though we would love him like a son
If he banged goals in for fun
But he'll hardly get a game at EFC
To the tune of Bad Romance, Lady GaGa
Instead of
"Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
Roma-roma-mamaa!
Ga-ga-ooh-la-la!
Want your bad romance"
Rah rah Roysten Drenthe
Ro-ma Roysten Drenthe
Ga-ga Roysten Drenthe
R R Roysten Drenthe...
Sound brilliant I reckon!!!
All Together Now, forever, for Everton.
If there are any Kopites watching this then thread how fucking sad are they?
Scrolling through Everton sites all day? Fucking pathetic.
If any of you twats are reading this thread? why don?t you fuck off onto one of your own sites you pathetic little twerps!
Anyhooooo, how about this?
Follow follow follow
Everton is the team to follow
There is no-body faster
Than Royston the Rapper
He?s the best crazy Dutchman we know!
Shudders!
(by the way 'faster' doesn't rhyme with 'rapper')
I used to work with a fella that name in I and I BM
And, the speed at which our fans sing would make it rhyme!
All mine are based around the same song basically!
He's fast.....he's French.....he's always on the bench.....Louis Saha.....Louis Saha...
(I know he's not new but what the hell)
Here is the song you are to sing during the next game.
Tune: Cup of Life, Ricky Martin.
DO YA REALLY WANT IT?
YEAH!
DO YA REALLY WANT IT?
YEAH!
HOOF HOOF BALL OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ
HOOF HOOF BALL OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ
WITH MOYSIE HERE
THIS IS THE BEST YOU'LL GET
WITH MOYSIE HERE
THIS IS THE BEST YOU'LL GET
DO YA REALLY WANT IT?
YEAH!
DO YA REALLY WANT IT?
YEAH!
HOOF HOOF BALL OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ
HOOF HOOF BALL OLÉ OLÉ OLÉ
x6
Think i've got one. To the tune of Pinball Wizard.
His name is Stracqualursi
He doesn't play hoofball
From Argentina to L4
He's gonna beat them all
Best thing about it
He cost Bill fuck all
That quick argy loan kid
He's cheap and he's really tall.
He wouldn't even be here
But he cost Bill fuck all
Might make more sense.
You're wearing an Everton jersey
While you're in Royal blue
We'll all be loving you
We'll shout your name along the Mersey
Den...is Straquelaaaaarsi
the same tune as Duncan, Duncan Ferguson...
Pet Shop boys "go West" wasnt it.
Dead simple and will reverberate around the ground when he scores against the shite
