With Alex Song and Robin Van Persie out of the club, Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal squad looks a lot more harmonious than it has in quite a while. However, in the fleet-footed form of Theo Walcott, there remains one more potentially wantaway star ye to commit to the club.

With young Theo struggling to get a game for the Gunners, he may well ultimately leave the club in either January or next summer. However, for a group of Arsenal fans going by the name of Roxy Arms, the young winger needs to stay. And they are so adamant about this, they’ve even put together at not that bad grime tune. You can even buy it on iTunes here!!! Check it out…

Here’s the lyrics. Erm… dench. Etc.

INTRO
Come on mate,
Time’s tickin’.
Last year of the contract,
Still ain’t signed it.
What’s going on man?
Spill the beans.

CHORUS
Walcott, Walcott, Walcott, Walcott,
Sign da ting, sign da ting.

VERSE 1
Oi Theo (What?) stick to the wing. (Why?) 
Playing up front just ain’t your thing, (Awwwww) 
Apart from your pace what else are you offering? 
Now we got Oxlade-Chamberlain. (Oh!) 
In your spot, technique he brings, that’s why the fans his name we sing, (Ox) 
Should be you but it’s not its him. We ain’t playing you ’til you sign the ting. (Whoops)

PRE-CHORUS
Sign the ting nuh, sign the ting. (What?) Theo Walcott, sign the ting. (Yep!) If you don’t, well, then you’re stuck on the bench, (What?) listening to Frimpong chat about Dench. (Yep!) 
We got Podolski, we got Giroud, (Chim-Chiminee) even Gervinho’s been up front too, (No diggity!)
That ain’t to say that they’re better than you, but you got a year left, (What? What?) so what you gonna do then?

CHORUS
Walcott, Walcott, Walcott, Walcott,
Sign da ting, sign da ting.

You’ll never get more love than from The Gunners. (We love you!)
Think about that before you do a runner.
If you stay I’ll be happy, in fact delighted. (Yes!)
If you go I hope you don’t go to Man Utd (Boo!)
Are you gonna be just like the rest, just take the money, (hmm?) forget the crest, (Yep!)
The big phat cannon upon your chest, (What? What?)
Cos’ That’s what makes you play your best.

PRE-CHORUS
Sign the ting nuh, sign the ting. (What?) Theo Walcott, sign the ting. (Yep!) If you don’t, well, then you’re stuck on the bench, (What?) listening to Frimpong chat about Dench. (Yep!) We got Podolski, we got Giroud, (Chim-Chiminee) even Gervinho’s been up front too, (No diggity!)
That ain’t to say that they’re better than you, but you got a year left, (What? What?) so what you gonna do then?

Sign da ting, sign da ting.

So Theo (yeah?) what’s it gonna be? 
When you look into the mirror. What do you see? (hmmm..)
Do you wanna be a part of history? Or are you gonna be like van Persie?
The little boy inside him saying join me! It’s been a long time since you won a trophy. 
And that was for being a young personality. 
Given to you by the BBC.

PRE-CHORUS
Sign the ting nuh, sign the ting. (What?) Theo Walcott, sign the ting. (Yep!) If you don’t, well, then you’re stuck on the bench, (What?) listening to Frimpong chat about Dench. (Yep!) We got Podolski, we got Giroud, (Chim-Chiminee) even Gervinho’s been up front too, (No diggity!)
That ain’t to say that they’re better than you, but you got a year left, (What? What?) so what you gonna do then?
