knees up Mother Brown
Knees up Mother Brown
Under the table you must go
Ee-i, ee-i, ee-i-oh
If I catch you bending
I'll saw your knees right off, (OFF!)
So knees up, knees up
Got to get your knees up
Knees up Mother Brown
Oh my what a rotten song, (SHIT!)
What a rotten song, (SHIT!)
What a rotten song (SHIT!)
Oh my what a rotten song (SHIT!)
What a rotten singer too-oo-oo.

seem to recall this ditty being sang in the North at the Goldstone

Every game.

Certainly not in the north stand, I've been to every game and not heard it, although there's another song sung to the same tune.

It's sung in the North Stand almost every game.

 

[Randsta]

A few people were singing it on the train leaving the game.............justified!

 

[wehatepalace]

It's sung in the North Stand almost every game.

Maybe it's the opposite side of the stand, I can honestly say I've never heard until Friday.
Maybe it's a police box crew song ?

Harry Roberts is our friend----------

I was so young, i didn't know who Harry Roberts was

I genuinely used to think that was funny.

Times have changed. I was going to say "and I have changed", but I really don't know why I found it funny then.

[Wrong-Direction]

I never hear this in the singing section of North? Does the OP mean "You're shit ahhhhhhh"?

Referee, referee your old lady is whore, your old lady is a whore.

I was about 10 years old when this was sung by the North Stand at the Goldstone, I thought they were singing " Your old lady is a horse "

I used to think it was horse too.

Shouldn't this be:

Knees up Brighton town

Knees up Brighton town

Top of the table we must go

Ee-i, ee-i, ee-i-oh

And when we win promotion

This is what we'll sing

We are the Champions

We are the Champions

Chrissy Hughton's King

 

[grubbyhands]

If I had the wings of sparrow and the Arse of Seagull I would fly over Selhurst tomorrow and sxxx on the basxxxxx below below etc etc

Wasn't it "arse of a crow" to rhyme with "below"?

Ok
But have you ever seen a seagull kill an eagle

 

[Iggle Piggle]

About 10 years ago, some absolute dangers tried starting a Brighton chant to 'Bright eyes' from Watership down. Worst chant ever by a mile.

 

[grubbyhands]

A seagull kill an eagle you say? St. Patricks' day perchance?

It was pretty shit but things are always worth a try, at least they actually sung it rather than getting the blessing from people on here before trying it.
Also, it wasn't quite original as Terry Garroghan sung a better version during his shows

Indeed it should.

think it went on....." crying BHA, alive alive-o.......alive, alive-o, alive, alive-o......crying BHA...alive, alive-0 "
( although sometimes the fans just sang the original words....." crying cockles and mussels....alive. alive-0 " )

God himself only knows how "BHA" fits in that!?

My late seventy memories are:

In Dublins fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I first cast my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
She wheeled her wheel barrah (sic)
Through streets broad n narrah (ditto)
Singing.......
WE HATE PALACE AND WE HATE PALACE........!!! (and so on)

You look in the dustbin for something to eat - you find a dead cat and you think it's a treat - in your Manchester Street.

Soon hopefully.

At least the awful Briiggghhton to to the tune, of Brighteyes, no longer happens.

Unless yesterday's hero Garoghan starts up again

Strret? Do your research (for once) yes it rhymes but originally it's "Liverpool slum" as its to the tune of the song "in my Liverpool home"

However, dead cats are a staple in Manchester St just off St James Street so you might be half right (for once)
