The Ultimate Poll: Maggots vs Magnet

[northsomersetblade]

Magnet as rocket fuel, you're having a laugh

Get more zing out of shitwasp piss

For the fish, what goes around, comes around

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

Is it 'Packet of Woodbine' or 'Packet of Woodbines'?

....and is it " a good pinch of snuff ". or. " a good pinch of nasally inhaled substance of choice"?

 

[Piffle and Tosh]

Magnet brewed in Tadcaster FFS

and ?

 

[Piffle and Tosh]

that would be an ecumenical matter .

 

[Sheffsteel]

In the original song the correct lyric is “magnet”.

However maggots is an easier word to sing than magnet.
Hence why many of our fans chose the lazy way and sing maggots.

 

[mosbolad]

There's nothing that fills the senses more than the smell of a gallon of maggots as anyone who done so will testify.

I love the smell of maggots in the morning......

Smells like victory...

Jack Charlton isn't dead and it isn't 1889 either.

That's another mis-sung lyric. It's actually every year is 1889.

It should also be “On and on...undisclosed from Derby”

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Is it 'Packet of Woodbine' or 'Packet of Woodbines'?

 

[Hamburg Blade]

In what sense is a gallon of maggots a pleasurable thing which might be described as filling up one's senses?

Maggots themselves are not something anyone loves.

That's another mis-sung lyric. It's actually every year is 1889. A poetic expression of our dominance in the city.

The correct line in the GCB is also "come thrill me again" not 'fill'.

Yes, it's thrill me again. That's how I heard and learnt it originally. The first part is all about your senses being filled, that said and done with, it finishes with exhorting the Blades to thrill us. The whole "it started that way so it has to finish that way" is irrelevant.
