Song for George Boyd

Not sure how anyone else might feel about this, but it seems to me an adaptation of an existing / famous George Best song might be the best option for our new signing. I've had a quick look on youtube and the first one I found was this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Zh65Qt7mJE&feature=related

So we could be singing...

"Number One is Georgie Boyd,
Number Two is Georgie Boyd,
Number Three is Georgie Boyd,
Number Four is Georgie Boyd,
(etc. up to Number Twelve)
We all live in a Georgie Boyd world, a Georgie Boyd world, a Georgie Boyd world"
(to the tune of Yellow Submarine)... not the best song in the world but it seems to be an established chant that doesn't sound like anything we already have (plus we'd be nicking it from United which would be a laugh)

Or there's this one (apologies for the poor video):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xdXZtP7MSc&feature=related

It could start "He's a player that's a legend from the famous City Ground,"

... but I couldn't face sitting through the rest of that little girl squealing so someone else might have to tell me how this one ends.

Then there's this interesting ditty from Stevenage Borough, actually about George Boyd:

I told my mate the other day,
I think I've found the white Pele,
My mate said who, who is he,
I told my mate it's George Boydie...

Great up until the crap 'George Boydie' ending.

Any other ideas? Personally I'm in favour of the first one - could be fun to have a chant that everyone gets straight away but lasts a bit longer then "One Georgie Boyd" and the like.

Ooh!! I finally get it - Number One is Brian Rice! So that's where it comes from then. Should I feel a bit daft for not knowing that? Although, to be fair, I haven't heard anyone sing it at the CG before (and I've been going for getting on for twenty years)...!

EDIT: I guess you learn something new every day:

Born in Glasgow, Rice's playing career started at Hibernian. He was signed by Nottingham Forest manager Brian Clough for £175,000 in August 1985. During his time there, Forest won the Football League Cup twice, in 1989 and 1990. Although he was thought by some fans to lack pace,[1] he scored a memorable winning goal in the 6th round of the FA Cup against Arsenal in 1988.[1]
Rice is still fondly remembered (perhaps ironically)[2] at the City Ground, with a chant to the tune of Yellow Submarine: "Number one is Brian Rice, Number two is Brian Rice" (etc) with a chorus of "We all live in a world of Brian Rice."[3] More recently members of the fans forum on the website LTLF [1] have taken to having Rice's name printed on the backs of their replica shirts with different squad numbers in a continuation of the chant and Rice's cult appeal.[4] Members of the website also sang the song on Soccer AM.[5]

Well I never!

Oh Georgie Boyd, the reds, the reds are singing
From ground to ground , and down ode Wembley Way
The summer's here, and soon you will be signing
'Tis you, 'tis you to take my fears away.
But come ye back when we are really flying
Not at The Valley Or the shit house Pridless Park
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine always singingggggg
Oh Georgie Boyd, oh Georgie boyd, I love you so.
