Don't ask me, I didn't create it, just heard it being sung yesterday!
Didn't you get a songsheet then?

It was a little bit cringy hearing our fans try Sloop John B before kick off yesterday
You must have been near me then as I was behind them and along 3 seats - bloody pathetic
So people try to go along and have a bit of laugh and get behind the team. At least yesterday it was something different rather than the usual rubbish of the awful 'In your northern slums...', 'You're just a small town...'
To label supporters pathetic for getting behind the team defies belief. I thought some Albion fans were moaners but this really is a low
Oh come on it was cringeworthy to say the least and as some of you lot are TSLR I suspect you are trying to impose your position on this just like the moral high ground two years ago at Huddersfield.
Why not try and co-ordinate something sensible through the club ?
Sad to say the best versions of this song have well and truly been taken.

f*** me, 2 years on and you are still going on about one misguided post on NSC which in general has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fanzine.
As someone who likes to prove how much they love the club at every occassion, I would have thought you, along with most, would appreciate any attempt at creating some new songs for our players. If you honestly find that song more cringeworthy that shit like 'you're just a small town in [nowhere anywhere near]', "Do, do, do, do [any player with 4 syllables]" or "There's only one [ANY player in the world]" then I am quite shocked.
I'm not saying the Calderon song is perfect, but the point is, if no one tries to sing anything new we will carry on being the most unimaginative team in the league, with apprently only one song that anyone can sing along to ("Albiooooooooooon, Albiooooooooon", nicked off the Scousers). And KNC calling someone a 'monkey' for singing a chant. Jesus. christ.
To be honest you must be thinking of a different tune, because it works perfectly!
Were you at the United Of Manchester away game?...They were trying to hand out song-sheets at that one and I am not joking!!! We do have some decent songs but if we are going to get more going then we should at least make them a little more original instead of re-hashing every other teams chants...Much like what the United Of Manchester fans have done.
I mean there are loads of clubs that sing that terrible 'Sloop John B' and there are some that want us to adopt! I was at Vicarage Road last season to watch Watford v West Brom and both sets of supporters were singing it...But then in a complete surprise and with some excellent originality the West Brom fans starting singing 'The Lord Is My Shepherd' which sounded great.
See people, we do not need just to copy everyone else, we too, can be original.
Albion & England forever.

New songs and lyrics can be talked about on here till the cows come home, but until someone actually takes them to games and has a go were going to be stuck with the same boring and mundane chants that we sing now.
Beach Hut give us a song, Beach Hut Beach Hut give us a song.....SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
