VUVUZELA SONG, THE SONG FROM SOUTH AFRICA FIFA WORLD CUP 2010

Vuvuzela

So now we’re underway
We’ve seen 22 nations play
We’ve Tevez and Messi combining
R. Kelly with his terrible miming

We’ve seen refs make their mark
A wonder goal from Ji Sung Park
We’ve seen France’s tedious failure
It could be worse – they could be Australia

We’ve had the hosts’ Macarena celebration
Mick McCarthy’s ropey pronounciation
Every player’s boots being grey and orange

We’ve had the hosts’ Macarena celebration
Mick McCarthy’s ropey pronounciation
Every player’s boots being grey and orange
Ah crap – nothing ever rhymes with orange

But between every game and goal
I’ve realized my life has gaping hole
Which I’l fill as soon as I can find a seller …

…I really need to buy myself a Vuvuzela…

…I really need to buy myself a Vuvuzela…
(Get a Vuvuzela…)

And so on Saturday
First game – the USA
When Gerrard hit the net
It Looked like we were set

Emile was everywhere,
Winning in the air

Cole and Johnson pushing on,
But then it all went wrong. (oh no…)

As I watched the TV screen,
Could not believe it, Bobby Green

My Gran would not have let Dempsey score,

As I watched the TV screen,
Could not believe it, Bobby Green

My Gran would not have let Dempsey score,
She’d have saved it even though she’s 94

So now I really need to find,
That one thing to help me clear my mind

I think I might call Nelson Mandella…

…and see if he can order me a Vuvuzela…

I always dreamed that I could play
Violin like Vanessa Mae

Or slide guitar,
Play drama like Ringo Starr would do

Play the flute to grade four,
But I don’t want to anymore …

Wanting to play piano like Alicia Keys
or learning some banjo expertise
Playing clarinet with class and grace
or maybe taken lessons on the double bass

… screw that, all I want’s a Vuvuzela …

I ‘ve wanted to sing like Michael Ball
Play recorder at the royal Albert Hall
I’ve longed to have a jam
With my man Paul Weller…

… screw that, all I want’s a Vuvuzela …
(all I want’s a Vuvuzela…)

Vuvuzela .. ela...la.. ela...la...

Yupps, Dave Henson or David Hanson does The Vuvuzela Song to the tune of Rihanna’s Umbrella song. It’s being played on BBC Radio and is funny and smart. Now this song will accomplish you smile a chic masterclass mix from Dave Henson.
To listen this song just go here.

Actually, Vuvuzela is an instrument, but not always a musical one. Describing the atmosphere in a stadium packed with thousands of fans blowing their vuvuzelas is difficult. Up close it's an elephant, sure, but en masse the sound is more like a massive swarm of very angry bees. And when there's action near the goal mouth, those bees go really crazy. But, Dave Henson makes the pros and cons of Vuvuzela become something funny anf make us smile.

Then......vuvezalas are bound to play an integral part in South Africa's 2010 celebrations, and FIFA World Cup 2010 visitors are sure to go home with a vuvuzela or two tucked in their luggage - and a little ringing in their ears ...
