Bank Holiday in Manchester, the usual pouring rain
Rags held a big parade, guess what, nobody came
"We're the biggest in the world" is what they always claim
So why was it on your big day, that still nobody came

"They'll come by car, by coach, by foot, by jumo jet and train
But when the chips were truly down, guess what, nobody came
Shown up at Wembley twice, by blues and boys from spain,
And so the wankers stayed in bed to dream away their pain

"We still had more than city" was the blatent trafford lie
But the camera never lies you cunts, we saw it all on Sky
The BBC and GMP, they didnt make things up,
They said the streets were far more packed, when city won the cup

So take your lies and shove them where the sun wont shine again
It was the day of your parade, fuck you nobody came
So hail the day forever, its proven to be true,
That Trafford is for tourists, but MANCHESTER IS BLUE


Edit to say: can't take the credit, just received as a text.

ha ha I like it :-)

Hehe. Cut the sweary bits & send it to a few media people. Someone would read it out over the air.

this city is our fuck off back to london, this city is ours

Nicked it for my FB....

Hilarious.

Incidentally, anyone else started using their parade as a description to illustrate a disappointing outcome or lack of people etc ?

I've got several in today, eg, bit of work cancelled late in the day: 'bigger let down than Utd's homecoming' , not many in the pub: 'quieter than the rag's parade in here' etc etc. There are more different ways to use it than there were people at the event.

I think everyone should start using it so it becomes part of the language.

That's quality, was thinking of texting it to a Rag mate, then realised I haven't any. Bum!!!

haha it not my video mate but it made me chuckle!

The rags came out to greet their team
to see what they had won
they looked around the empty streets
and they knew their time had come
the road was clear from front to rear
as they crowded round the bus
but sky tv and the bbc
just didn't make a fuss
they knew the evil empire
was about to take a fall
because Mancinis sky blue army
will soon be taking all.
