IN MY OPINION, Worst QPR Song of alltime, the sad thing is that when push comes to shove, everyone knows it as well.
We are more likely to end up in The Mickey Mouse / Teletubbies League than The Premier League singing embarrasingly cringeworthy fayre like this.
At the end of the day, it really does make us sound very very silly.
Cheers

apart from nearly 70% of people on this messageboard - the fact is, a bit like Gordon Brown (bet you love the comparison) you've started something you can't win
nice one

Oh Pur-Lease!
Theres not one person reading this thread that genuinely thinks its a good song, apart from maybe QBlockPete & thats only because he invented it / bangs his drum along to it.
To be honest, I respect the enthusiasm, but it doesnt even sound good!
If you compare it to WE R QPR, SAY WE R QPR, there isnt much scope for misinterpreting the words with that song, which is the overriding requisite of all Terrace chants, the fact that they must be simple, repetitive & easily UNDERSTANDABLE.
Show me a person in Loftus Road that doesnt understand the lyrics to WE R QPR, when it is being sung with gusto & then we can start talking about deaf people.
Cheers

Yes, but which song did they like. We are the Rangers boys, or we are the rent boys. Bet you didn't find that out, eh, eh.

It was a rangers fans poll. Not a rent fans poll.
(Bill Bailey rent rant scenario ensues...)

So what about a chant for Rangers fans who are buying their own property?
"We are the mortgage boys!"

And another thing...
Suppose some Rangers fans despair so much about the team's performance that they tear their hair out or rip their clothes in frustration.
Would they not be rent boys?
It's a thought.

Back in the 90's (early, mind) the repartee from the crowd used to be quite fun and clever.
With luck, when success comes back to the team the wit will return. In the meantime:
"we r the rannn boys"
Marvellous. The wit of Oscar Wilde has not died. |

Quite.
I've heard less cringeworthy songs in the Cabaret show at Butlins.
Maybe "the missing 3000" QPR Fans took all of the old wit that we used to be fairly well known for with them ???

No it doesnt.
But then again, maybe thats because its a different song ???
Not sure what point you are making here Pete considering the above song is sung in a completely different tune, maybe you should consider singing "We Are The Rent Boys" in this tune, or in tune in general ???
Cheers
