The Golden Fleece

"Glory, Glory Man United", the home crowd proudly sing
But the only sound the fat cats hear are the cash tills as they ring.
Another new kit's on it's way - why do they need so many?
To bleed loyal supporters dry, of each and every penny?
Fans proudly show their colours and wear their shirts with pride
But 13 kits within 5 years, they've been taken for a ride.
Parents just despair of it as they're hit right in the pocket,
Whilst United rub their hands in glee as they watch the kit sales rocket.
No interest in domestic cups - too small for Fergie's liking,
As for their success in Europe - you could hardly call it striking.
And as the season's end drew near they were just like Mother Hubbard,
Fighting Arsenal for the points - to put silver in their cupboard.
So wake up Man United, at the top you may well reign,
But to most of your supporters, you're just a big financial drain.
