"Ode to the Sixers"
I love the 36ers, I love to see them dunky,
There's nothing better than Schench hanging on the ring like a monkey.
What about that Mahervellous player number five,
There's no doubt about it, he's the best Sixer alive.
I lost my hair watching the General marshalling his troops,
How many times have I nearly died watching the offensive skills of Coops?
Jake is a player who sets up lots of plays,
but Bradtke is the player who stayed with Andrew Gaze.
The rollercoaster of the Messiah was all about the money,
But hearing of him handing some back, was really, really funny.
Erik is the Sixer who needs a better go,
Nothing sweeter than watching him swish 3 triples in a row!
Now all the girls like Aaron, just because he's cute,
but all the boys like Brucey, because the boy can shoot.
What more can be said of the Great White Knight Mal?
Except that he's on a trip and expecting a sale.
What about new owners, c'mon I need the goss,
Will Chris Fuss be called the Great Big Boss?
And if the Sixers do go, I'll miss Dicky, Flynny and Scotty,
but I won't miss the poison pen from the moustached Mr. Boti.
