LYRICS:

Sure, he’s got a pretty face. That people know they know,

They think they recognise him from his big time TV show,

But despite the accolades, despite the load of fame,

One thing that they do not know is how to say his name,

Pronouncing all those N’s and E’s and H’s can first perplex them,

So here’s a little birthday gift from all your mates in Wrexham,

It’s McElhenney, McElhenney,

While ways to massacre and mispronounce that there are many,

It’s McElhenney, McElhenney,

If there was doubt now there won’t be any,

It’s McElhenney,

First it’s Mack-le like a tackle, when we take ’em to the ground

The henny like the penny that he’s in for with the pound,

It’s M, C, E L HE, double N, E Y,

You’ll probably fuck it up but give it a try,

It’s McElhenney, McElhenney,

While ways to massacre and mispronounce that there are many,

It’s McElhenney, McElhenney,

If there was doubt now there won’t be any,

It’s McElhenney,

Is it Mickle? No!

Only a prick’ll call him Mickle,

Is it Haney? Hell no!

It’s always rainy calling him Haney,

Mack instead of Mick, then Henney does the trick,

So get the name correct, and show the man some damn respect!

It’s McElhenney, McElhenney,

While ways to massacre and mispronounce that there are many,

From the Racecourse to the Turf, to the ends of the bloody Earth,

If there was doubt now there won’t be any, there won’t be any!

Cause now you know it’s McElhenney!
