A song for Goodison

[Cake]

Goodison Park is falling down
Falling down, falling down
Goodison Park is falling down
My Grand Old Lady

Build it up down at the docks
At the docks, at the docks
Build it up down at the docks
My Grand Old Lady

Payday loans will see us skint
See us skint, see us skint
Payday loans will see us skint
My Grand Old Lady

Build it up with gold and silver
Gold and silver, gold and silver
Build it up with gold and silver
My Grand Old Lady

Gold and silver we now have
We now have, we now have
Gold and silver we now have
My Grand Old Lady

Goodison Park is falling down
Falling down, falling down
Goodison Park is falling down
My Grand Old Lady

So annoying to hear Villa fans sing We shall not be moved.
We should sing it every game. It's our song

Will have a look when I’m not on my phone and take the abuse

 

[CrustySack]

To the tune of Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones.

Goodbye, Goodison Park
Always will remember you
Memories fade from blue into grey
Forever we will miss you

Anyone help with this one. Been thinking it'd be incredible with the right lyrics.
Hear me out....

"Do you hear the people sing? - Les Miserables"

I think this would sound amazing with 50000+ people singing it.

Lyrics wise, got as far as...

Do you hear the Toffees sing?
Singing the songs of Everton
It is the music of a team,
Who will be champions again.

From the stands of Goodison Park
to the Docks of Bramley Moore...

Ok, so its not much, but it's a start.

Anyone else think this is a go-er, or am I on my own here? haha

Interestingly, Amateur groups are set to perform Les Miserables for the first time later this year at the Empire. I reckon for a relatively small donation, you could get a decent recording done if its got legs. Food for thought.

Could well be a fitting song at Sandhills station after the match when folks are stood in a queue for 6 hours waiting to get on a train back into town.

Or Sitting on the Dock of the Bay

Or Sitting on the Dock of the Bay

With no Ferry planned like the Kings Dock proposal ....

I'd perceive it as a Cup song tbh - Villa just sing WSNBM - we have a whole song built around it - "Onwards Evertonians.....".

 

[Blue Willy]

Just finished some lyrics that even the young Everton Las could remember. It goes….















Booooooooooooo.

Here you go:

GOODISON HEROES



I sold my soul to Everton, and it didn’t cost a thing
Standing in the Gwladys Street I taught myself how to sing
Watching in awe of the Goodison Heroes, just like Our King
Living your life in a blaze of glory, burning it up for a pride-filled club
Giving your soul to the world

Chorus:

Like a Goodison hero, a soldier of fortune in the night
Like a Goodison hero, when the white, hot lights cut through the night
And the sound of sirens starts roaring
That’s when you know what youre saving it for
And you’re feeling like a Goodison hero

I owe it all to Everton and I wouldn’t want to change a thing
Dixie, Sharp, The Golden Vision, Sheedy playing on the wing
What does it take to be a Goodison hero, just like Our Latch
Living your life in a blaze of glory, a spark in your eyes, A flame in your soul,

Giving it all to the world

Chorus:

Like a Goodison hero, a soldier of fortune in the night
Like a Goodison hero, when the white, hot lights cut through the night
And the sound of sirens starts roaring
That’s when you know what you’re saving it for
And you’re feeling like a Goodison hero
