Joel Robertson The key change in Football Emotion gives hope for an end to VFL tyranny. The clarinets in the Wanganeen demo show why Gehrig was foolish to flood the field with fans in 04.

I've got a little notion It's a sentient ideal And a deluge of devotion When your deities are real I've got a little notion It's a buzzing in my ear The seasons are in motion It's a football time of year Lace the guernsey, we're victory bound! Heavens on earth, its the old home ground! Thats when I feel a football emotion Hit me from inside A football emotion Let the drop punt be your guide I found my own solution To my existential fear When I came to the conclusion That the planets not a sphere I've got a little notion It's a roaring everywhere The seasons are in motion And the footballs in the air Lace the guernsey, we're victory bound! Heavens on earth, its the old home ground! And then I feel a football emotion Hit me from inside A football emotion Let the drop punt be your guide So the boundary bends And within its wings Fleeting realms transpire As I work the ends And the sherrin sings "Up, Cazaly, Higher!" And then I feel a football emotion Hit me from inside A football emotion Let the drop punt be your guide And then I see a football in motion Flying through the posts A football emotion For the living and the ghosts And then I feel a football emotion And I'm screaming for the side A transcendental football emotion Couldn't stop it if I tried

Wanganeen 03:53
Wanganeen Take another bow We're all still wondering how You live on in my head Though you aren't even dead Who's our hero? Super Gavin Watch him as he goes Who's our hero? Super Gavin The only one we know Wanganeen At sixteen you were right To wear the black and white You won the brownlow too In red and black you beat them blue Who's our hero? Super Gavin Watch him as he goes Who's our hero? Super Gavin The only one we know Wanganeen Had a noble job to do When from the magpie, lightning grew You led us to the stage To rewrite history's page Who's our hero? Super Gavin Watch him as he goes Who's our hero? Super Gavin The only one we know Wanganeen
