History has taught us two things.
1. Do not invade Russia in winter.
2. Trying to get a song for a player actually onto the terraces is more fun than the above but as about as easy.
So what then of the boy VdV? Early indications are that we have a ‘bit of a player’ on our hands here and he really needs a song or a call at least in recognition of his pretty bloody wonderfulness so far, not to mention his pretty bloody wonderfulnesses that are surely yet to come.
Given the nature of his surname the Fat Les – Vindaloo fits like a glove…
Me and me mum and me dad and me gran we all love van dar vaart,
Me and mum and me dad and me gran have taken ‘im to our heart.
Van der vaart van der vaart van der vaart – Van der vaart la lal
Van der vaart van der vaart van der vaart – Van der vaart la la
Van der vaart van der vaart and we all love – Van der vaart
Were going to score one more than you – – Tottenham!
A chap by the name of Jon Fisher cooked up this little ditty that appeared on 606; to the tune of the old Addams Family theme…
He’s just as good as Hoddle,
He’s better than Chris Waddle,
His Mrs is a model,
He’s Rafael Van Der Vaart!
Right, over to you…
To the tune of Gold! Spandex Ballet.
Van Der Vaart! Ah!
Tottinghams new Dutch maestro.
Part yid and part gypo.
Eye for goal.
He’s gonna do it again.
Van Der Vaart!
Or even just.. Van Der Vaart. Ah!
to the tune of robin hood
Van der vaart van der vaart scorin in the box
Van der vaart van der vaart his missus is a fox
He came from madrid
But now he is a Yid
Van der vaart van der vaart
Brilliant
to the tune of only fools and horses (even though they’re west spanners)
God bless VDV
Viva VDV
Long live VDV
C’est magnifique VDV
Magnifique VDV
