I’m still standing
(With apologies to Elton John)
With the recent release of Rocketman (not sponsoring this article but if Paramount are reading ???), I started humming some Elton John tracks. Then ‘I’m still standing’ popped into my head and then so did Carl Jenkinson.
I’m Still Standing: Starring Carl Jenkinson
You could never know what it’s like
Blanked at a photo shoot, it’s not nice
Cos there Rambo, Theo, Gibbs, Ox and Wilshere too
They talk up the British core, but they ignore you
They didn’t think this fool could ever win
Well look at me, I’m the only one left in
I’ve got passion and love for this club every day
And if you need to know why I’m still standing, obviously, I can play?
Don’t you know I’m still standing when no one else did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I’m still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of the British core that’s left behind
I’m still standing yeah yeah yeah
Til someone buys me yeah yeah yeah
Once I never could hope to win
I was behind Matthieu Debuchy, then Hector Bellerin
All their injuries kept me here again
All the loan moves I made never wore me down
‘Cos surely, if they didn’t believe in my ability, I would have been sold by now
Don’t you know I’m still standing when no one else did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I’m still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of the British core that’s left behind
I’m still standing yeah yeah yeah
Til someone buys me yeah yeah yeah
Don’t you know I’m still standing when no one else did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I’m still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of the British core that’s left behind
I’m still standing yeah yeah yeah
Til someone buys me yeah yeah yeah
I’m still standing yeah yeah yeah
Til someone buys me yeah yeah yeah
