MIGHTY FIGHTING BULLDOGS (tune of Yankee Doodle Dandy)

We're a winning team at Centrals
We're the mighty fighting 'dogs
We love our Club and we play to win
Riding the bumps with a grin at Centrals

Come what may you'll find us striving
Teamwork is the thing that talks
One for all and all for one
Is the way we play at Centrals
We are the mighty fighting 'Dogs.

GROWL OF THE DOGS
(Favoured by Alan Stewart, Based on the English World Cup Team song)

We’re on our way, we are the Dogs through and through.
Hear the roar of the RED, WHITE and BLUE.
This time, more than any other time, this time,
We’re gonna find a way, find a way to get away, this time.
Getting it all together, to win them all, is what we set out to do,
We have a dream, we know you're sharing it too.
This time, more than any other time, this time,
We’re gonna find a way, find a way to get away, this time.
Getting it all together, we’ll get it right, this time,
We’ll get it right, this time.
It makes you wonder, it makes you proud to play for Centrals,
and hear the C-R-O-W-D as we’re marching, towards VICTORY!
(Repeat first 4 lines)
Finale: THIS TIME WE’LL GET IT RIGHT! (Repeat 4 times)

Very unofficial Songs & Chants

The famous haunting chant:
Ceeentraaals, Ceeentraaals, Ceeentraaals, Ceeentraaals...

To the tune of 'Hey Jude' - an essential:
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na,
Na, na, na, na,
Ceeentraaals!
(repeat the above several times. Someone usually trails off with):
Do do de do do do de do do...

Come On You Dogs (In the raspiest voice possible):
Cooooome Ooooon Yooooou Dooooogs!
Cooooome Ooooon Yooooou Dooooogs!
Yooooou Dooooogs!

Cen-te-rals, Cen-te-rals, Cen-te-rals,
Cen-te-rals, Cen-te-rals, Cen-te-rals,
Cen-te-rals, Cen-te-rals!

Oh, we love you Central District,
We are going to win the League.
We'll be kicking up a fuss,
When we're lifting up the Cup,
Centrals you're the only team for me.

We love you Centrals, we do,
We love you Centrals, we do,
We love you Centrals, we do,
Oh, Centrals we love you.

You'll Never Walk Alone:
When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There's a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.

Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown...
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone...
You'll never walk alone.

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone...
You'll never walk alone.

Everywhere We Go:
(Each line sung 'softly' by leader then repeated 'loudly' by crowd. Made famous by 'Barry')
Everywhere we go,
People come and ask us,
Where the hell are you from?
Shall we tell them?
We're from Centrals,
Mighty, mighty, Centrals,
We're from Centrals,
Mighty, mighty Centrals,
Everywhere we go,
People want to know,
Who we are,
Shall we tell them,
Who we are,
We are Centrals,
We're Central District!
We are Centrals,
We're Central District!

Oh when the dogs, go marching in,
Oh when the dogs go marching in,
I wanna be in that number,
Oh when the dogs go marching in.

What's the colour of a 2-cent piece,
Copper, Copper.
On the beat all day and his wife all night,
Copper, Copper.

You can shove your Aussie Rules up your arse,
You can shove your Aussie Rules up your arse,
You can shove your Aussie Rules,
Shove your Aussie Rules,
Shove your Aussie Rules up you arse.

Sing when you're winning,
You only sing when you're winning,
Sing when you're winning,

Sing when you're scoring,
You only sing when you're scoring,
Sing when you're scoring,
You only sing when you're scoring.

Score in a brothel, you couldn't score in a brothel...
Got one song, You've only got one song...

The Referee's a wanker,

Chant heard during the 2000 Qualifying final:
HOT DOGS! COLD PIES!

Chanted loudly and repeatedly at the 2001 Grand Final:
Alastair Clarkson's Barmy Army!

(repeat)

Que sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be,
We're going to win the League,
Que sera, sera.

Glory, glory, Central District,
Glory, glory, Central District,
Glory, glory, Central District,
And the dogs go marching on, on, on.

To the tune of 'Bob The Builder' (As seen on a 2001 Grand Final banner):
Central District!
Can we win it?
Central District!
Yes we can!

Ten long years they've been waiting for a cup,
But this year like the last one is another f***-up,
So its 6 points a season when you're living next door to North.

Forty years and won f*** all,
Panthers, Panthers,
Forty years and won f*** all,
Panthers is their name.
Panthers is their name,
Panthers is their name,
Forty years and won f*** all,
Panthers is their name.

Heard at the 2001 Grand Final:
We'll be running 'round West Lakes with our Cup,
We'll be running 'round West Lakes with our Cup,
We'll be running 'round West Lakes,

Submitted by Tom Parkino (To the tune of Our Don Bradman)
Ohhh youuu dooogs

We will be victorious
And the cup will gleam
No once can stop the dogs
Ohhh you doooogs
We love you so very very much
Ohhh you doooogs
What a very very lovely team!

My old man, He told me,
Centrals is the team for me.
With a knick-knack, paddy-whack, give the dog a bone,
All you wharfies piss off home.

One-Liners:

What's it like to see a crowd?

You've got more balls than fans.

How wide do you want the goal?

What's it like to be outclassed?

Can we play you every week?
