Found: First draft of Manics’ Wales Euro song, lyrics by Richey

Let Robson Kanu sing
from the notebooks of Richey James Edwards
Dylan Thomas – can suck my cock
Shirley Bassey – just isn’t that good
Robbie Savage – self love in his mirrors
Giggsy – married into group sex
Morganwg – forged his own destiny
Hartson – never looked right in the tight shirts
Football, football
Come on Wales
Lebensraum Gareth Bale
Adidas?
kits by fila

Charlotte Church – voice of an angel
Bryn Terfel – you also do singing
Ashley Williams – is actually from Smethwick
Howard Marks – smoked for CIA
Tom Jones – false tan traces bye bye
Owain Glyndŵr – limited but effective

Revol football
Revol football
Milk milk, Ian Rush
Scouse scouse
Fifa fifa

Jon was voted the ‘14th Most Influential Person in the West Midlands’ in 2008. Subsequently he has not been placed. He’s been a football referee, venetian blind maker, cellar man, and a losing Labour council candidate: “No, no chance. A complete no-hoper” said a spoilt ballot. Jon wrote and directed the first ever piece of drama performed on Twitter when he persuaded a cast including MPs and journalists to give over their timelines to perform Twitpanto. But all that is behind him. View all posts by Jon Bounds
