Don't Diss Becks!

My one and only rap-I promise!

Don't Diss Becks!

 

Hey Ferguson

What have you done?

You've only gone and sold

Football's greatest son

To some Dago spiv.

Now where's Victoria and the kids gonna live?

Was it worth it for 25 mill

Such a, such a bitter pill

I can't swallow

But I'm not gonna wallow in my grief

See. See my brief

Old Trafford disbelief

I'm gonna burn my Man U shirt

S**t that hurt!

 

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

...........................

 

 

So Sven

You gonna put him in the team?

You know what I mean

Don't diss Becks

Just show some respect

For the rest of the fans

Becks IS the only man

For the job.

Don't rob us of the opportunity

To still see him play

In an England shirt.

Ferguson sold out, made pay dirt

Don't you even think about it!

 

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

...........................

 

 

So El Cid

Who you trying to kid

But you ain't so smart

Cause you haven't got his heart

You may have got your man

For all Real fans

But I'll say it again and again

He will never play for Spain

He will NEVER play for Spain!!

I hope that's plain

When the rain falls mainly

And Ferguson insanely

Sold our Jewell,

Traitorous fool,

How dare he!

They should give him an early shower

Lock him in the Tower.

Maybe it was him got hit on the head

With a football boot

Now he's got the loot

I'm infuriated

I hope he gets relegated

 

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

Don't diss Becks

I confess, I know nothing about football in any country, but this Rap is infectious! Great beat, rhyme and flow mos def! I can hear Ali-G doing this one..." Maybe it was him who got hit on the head...With a football boot...Now he's got the loot"-Ha! Love it totes! You go John!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

This footballer went to Spain from Manchester United but he also played for LA Galaxy. None other than David Beckham. Thank you so much Annette.

[Annette Pisano-Higley]

Oh yes I know him- or wish I did anyway-Duh!...You're very welcome John.

John,
I love this rant about losing an obviously topnotch British player to Spain.
As an American footballer, I'm shamelessly naive about your brand of football (soccer here), but it is becoming popular at an alarmingly fast pace, with many pro teams in the larger cities.
One thing that's for certain, you Brits are as passionate as we Yanks about our games and players.

Brilliant, how you've composed and presented your astoundingly pertinent choice of words, and I really like the layout, it kept me involved and moving … excellent-excellent formulating of this original piece, and a phenomenal rap song (if "song" is what one can legitimately call rap)!

I love it, it was a marvelous blast … thanks! ⁓ Richard

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha! I am not into rap personally Richard but I do love Eminem. He is exceptional and I have never heard a track of his I dislike. This was a one off and borne out of the ether as I am not a soccer fan and definitely not a fan of Manchester United. I do though admire the achievements of Sir Alex Ferguson, a fellow Scot. I much prefer rugby union. Many thanks for digging this out of my archives Richard.

[Richard🖌]

You could have fooled me that you're not a soccer fan (and you did).
I, too, am a rugby buff, as my nephew played hooker on his college team, and nothing played on a field is as rough, that I've yet seen … brutally so!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

The modern game is gladiatorial and the nuances of rugby are supreme to that of soccer. The fans are also much better as you can sit right next to opposing fans and there is no animosity. I took up playing at age 30 and played several seasons before sustaining a very serious fracture to my humerous (not very funny lol).

[Richard🖌]

Yes, the break of the humerous is certainly not humorous.
I've never done any sort of physical sport, John, except martial arts, and in that I've broken about every bone or gotten something torn apart … LOL!
What we do when young, we pay for when old.

[Tom McRoberts]

Aha, scrolling through the reviews I realised how British I really am! Great write, John.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thanks Tom just vote SNP on Thursday and you will be absolved lol!

[Tom McRoberts]

Despite my namesake I'm a little far south for their representation!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

So who else is there?

[wordman]

well I can`t relate to this,don`t know either

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha too british WM cheers

[alf]

Hi John. What can I say, man! This is terrific!!! Shoulda sold it!!!! can hear that one being spewed from the speakers before every he played!!!!! Luuuuuuv it, Alf

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you so much again Alf. Somehow I can't see Eminen wanting to perform it lol!

[alf]

Sheer lack of passion!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ANTO]

hah - I remember all this day after day in the redtops (newspapers with b***s)
This is funny John.
"They should give him an early shower
Lock him in the Tower.
Maybe it was him got hit on the head
With a football boot" - super fun!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Cheers Anto. It was just a fun write inspired by the football boot incident and selling Beckam to Real Madrid. Only rap I am ever going to attempt lol.

[andrew mitchell]

For a squeaky voice he has done so well with his life and for his family. If I had that squeak I would have been given oil! lol

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Yes he has done well! Cheers Andrew.

[AaronFreitas]

Haha you don't mess with the man! This is an awesome write... definitely enjoyed it :)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thanks Aaron. Twas inspired by a true tale and Ferguson did hit Beckham with a football boot on one occasion lol

[AaronFreitas]

Haha gotta love the fire that competition brings :)

[Lyn Anderson]

This one went whew - right over my head. I will have to try one about hockey and see if it accomplishes the same for you! ha.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha! Ha! It's a rap about David Beckam. Football is not my game but this tells a tale of his departure from Manchester United.

[Leigh]

Well he is back in the UK now and what a good player he is too, did I say good I meant brilliant, they don't make them like him very often, I still remember that goal he scored from the half way line for Man U a while ago and being from Bristol I am not a MUFC Fan if you know what I mean! England really miss a player like him, some one who is 2 dimensional and what accuracy too, he can lead....well the list goes on, he hasn't got many faults really....actually he is quite annoying ;-)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ha so a Beckam fan from Bristol! How did that happen? Lol

[Leigh]

Dunno just did
