ORFORDIAN PIE - Time for a song again!

A long, long time ago...

I can still remember

How the old folk said “it’s a cert!”

But I knew if I got the cards

That I could break their dodgy hearts

And, maybe, see old Tikay in a skirt!!

 

But that first round it made me shiver

I wondered if I could deliver.

More bad news in round two;

I didn’t think we’d come through.

 

But then we turned it all around

With awesome play in that third round!

You just can’t keep a good dog down

The day we won a game!

 

So bye-bye, Tikay, please do not cry

We’re the barmy Orford Army

And we’ll hang you out to dry.

And our good old boys are drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’ "Orford is the King of Sky”

“Orford is the King of Sky”

 

Did you see Phil12UK

On the night he blew them all away?

He really showed ‘em what to do!

And do you believe Kalooki8

When he says we must not hesitate

And now we’ve got to see it through.

 

And he says “Now you just wait and see,

Round four will be great – just like round three!”

Tikay’ll kick off again!

And in Sky towers there’ll be mayhem!

 

The old bloke will go quite insane

With his Burgundy jacket and his zimmerframe!

Muttering on about an old steam train!

The day we tie the score!

 

And we’ll be singin’,

Bye-bye, Tikay, please do not cry

We’re the barmy Orford Army

And we’ll hang you out to dry.

And our good old boys are drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’ "Orford is the King of Sky”

"Orford is the King of Sky”

 

For the first two rounds we took a stroll

But now we’ve won we are on a roll

And that’s just how it’s gonna be!

When the roulette wheel begins to turn

The gnome and the old folk are gonna learn

And they won’t like how we win so easily!

 

So they’ll claim its fixed and they’ll scream and shout!

Tikay will once again stomp about!

The forum will be deserted;

The samaritans all alerted!

And while Orford reads the final result,

He cannot help but quietly gloat,

And he laughs at the latest Jaeger’s wrote

On the day the match is tied.

 

And we are singing,

Bye-bye, Tikay, please do not cry

We’re the barmy Orford Army

And we’ll hang you out to dry.

And our good old boys are drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’ "Orford is the King of Sky”

"Orford is the King of Sky”

 

---------------------------------(27 verses omitted due to my own fading sanity and impending boredom)--------------------------------

 

So our team will triumph once again

And then the scores will be the same

A sad Tikay will be “unavailable”!

So the old folk look to Lord Vaigret

To give them hope in their darkest day

And maybe make their sad demise more bearable!

 

And in the end there’ll be one round left,

The deep stack which they claim is their best.

But there’ll be some surprises;

And we’ll take all the prizes!

And as team Orford will have won the lot,

We’ll get to play for the £1000 pot

And all of us will have a shot!

Well done to all who played!!!

 

And we’ll be singing,

Bye-bye, Tikay, please do not cry

We’re the barmy Orford Army

And we’ll hang you out to dry

And our good old boys are drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’ "Orford is the King of Sky”

"Orford is the King of Sky”

 

WE’LL BE SINGING,

Bye-bye, Tikay, please do not cry

We’re the barmy Orford Army

And we’ll hang you out to dry

And our good old boys are drinkin’ whiskey and rye

Singin’ "Orford is the Kiiiinnnng of Sky”

 

The Greatest Comeback Of All Time Continues......................

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!

 

PS Before you ask, it took me bloomin’ ages!!! ;)

    LOL, very funny...

    My attempt at Livin' on a Prayer just didn't click right.
    If only there was a comedy song round!

    AWESOME Digsy!! WEll for an Orfordite that is..

    Although I believe the original chorus is actually:


    So Why why would Orford even try

    When all in Tikay will outplay

    you, it'll just make you cry

    Don't come whingeing back to us when it's all gone AWRY

    singin' 'Tikayers were born to rule sky'

    Tikayers were born to rule sky

     

    You know it makes sense.

     

    You're welcome.

    Hi

    And all this for a captain who goes on and on about tikay,s Burgundy jacket and then has the audacity to wear a fetching blue jumper (He hand picked), and not only that, shares a taxi home with one of the mentors and gets nearly home after 45 mins travelling only to remember that he drove to work and his car is still there, oh dear :)

    hi ace if this is right the orford team need to be told that the team captain has lost his mind. first the jumper then the car must be a brake down (the orford not the car) this might need a new post with a bit of spin.

    Good luck

    Tricky, I'm not sure about doing requests! lol I'll see what I can do for you though, General!
    "Bloody Xmas songs" I couldn't agree with you more! For about two months all you hear, everywhere you go, is the same 20 or so bloody Xmas songs! grrr
