    Noooooo don't let them learn these lyrics, they're just wrong and will butcher the song if they sing it like that.

    Too many syllables on most lines

    Idea is brilliant but this can't be what they sang can it? It just doesn't fit the song at all

    Good song idea, but the first line is a mess.

    I think eyup&down had a good song for him on twitter if someone could post. It was to sunshine on a rainy day:
    Don pines on a rainy day
    Make my soul trip trip away
    (And repeat)

    The impressive thing is that the actual last line of that bit worked perfectly yet they changed it to one that that didn't fit

    Here's my attempt:

    Take us on a trip up to the Championship,
    With Donovan Pines, we're on a winning ship.
    I really want to, get promoted with you,
    You'll be our American boy, American boy.

    I met my love, in the West Stand bogs.
    Dreamed a dream in the Ponty End.
    The dreams come true because of you,
    Donovan Pines, Donovan Pines.
    To the tune of Dirty old town.

    "Take me to Oakwell
    I'd like to see you play.
    He's from the USA
    and now he's here to stay.
    I really want to
    Get promoted with you."

    I think fits better ;)

    To the tune of "Lonesome Pine"

    He's the best there is in League 1
    And his name is Donovan Pines

    in falsetto voices, as if hit over the head with a frying pan by Oliver Hardy.

    I’d like to submit ChatGPT’s absolutely absurd and awful take “
    To the tune of "We Will Rock You" by Queen:

    (Stomp, Stomp, Clap)
    (Stomp, Stomp, Clap)

    Oh, Donovan Pines, he stands so tall,
    Defending Barnsley, through it all.
    With every pass and every fight,
    He's our red hero, in the Tykes' light.

    (Stomp, Stomp, Clap) Donovan! (Stomp, Stomp, Clap)
    In red and white, he leads our pack,
    Pines, oh Pines, never looks back!

    It's simple, rhythmic, and highlights his defensive prowess and importance to the team, making it easy for fans to pick up and chant during matches.”

    Safe to say I don’t think the AI is taking over the world just yet

    He’s coming for you

    Don is our American boy’
