    Who dares summon me??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,605 ✭✭✭2ndcoming



    That has literally just blown my mind.

    This could be my personally greatest internet moment.

    I wish I could teleport back to the summer camp bus on the way to Mosney circa 1993 and correct all the lyrics in our chinese whispered hand-me-down version.

    I imagine that you'd quickly become the most popular boy in the whole camp.

    That, or you'd get beaten up!

    Its either the song, oggie and the roaches or about ugg boots?


  • Posts: 3,773 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    In my school trips we had a song called Bang Bang Rosie.

    "Bang bang Rosie,
    Rosie bangs all day,
    Who will bang for Rosie?
    When Rosie goes away"

    It was a song sung as a hippister (supported by the girls of private schools, who weren't see enough action on the pitch (candy wise), in relation to a fashion statement of wearing football jerseys in the 1990's.

    Orginally it was ugly ugly or oggy oggy (who agrees) I I or oi oi, it seemed to actually catch on after that moment. And became a bizarre chant, that reinforced what it was slagging off, and is now a stable chant at every Irish team sports game.

    I swear that is the truth ( either that or it was a scout motivational song) I think mine sounds better :D

    Only time I heard it was at international matches. or around a campfire, so I have no idea, not a expert at either, so could have missed out on something. ;)

    I've only ever heard of the song on nights out. Though might hear it the odd time at matches alright.
