Pretty Fly For A Fast Bowler: The Dale Steyn Song

by mspr1nt on August 25, 2010

in General Sweeps, South Africa

The T20 Champions league is right around the corner and, while we are all thrilled that Enrique Iglesias will be performing here, some players just need their own special song.

Take Dale Steyn  for instance. While he can surely be the hero for Bangalore, he is much more likely to be pretty fly for a white guy. If Offspring had written their hit about the speedster, this is what it would sound like:

Gunter glieben glauchen globen
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Give it to me baby. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
And all the girlies say I’m pretty fly
For a white guy.
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis.
You know it’s kinda hard just to play cricket today,
even if our team kinda sucks
he’ll give it his all anyway
He’s got a lot of pace
but not really any style
whatever he lacks he makes up with his guile

So don’t debate
Never play it straight
Doesn’t matter ‘
‘cause he’ll get you out anyway
He’ll set his field
Keep it real
The Dale Steyn way
The Dale Steyn way

He has a little temper
and failed a drug test before
but stick him in at eight
and you know he’s gonna score
even when taking paid
holidays in Bangalore
his average is quite sexy
he keeps on bowling fast
and if you blink twice
well, he’ll bowl
your friggin ass

So don’t debate
Never play it straight
Doesn’t matter ’cause
he’ll get you out anyway
He’ll set his field
Keep it real
The Dale Steyn way
The Dale Steyn way

He once scored 76
and has picked up a ton of sticks
he can grow a porno moustache
but that don’t make him trash
He’s uber cool
Though he sometimes plays the fool
It’s just The Dale Steyn way
The Dale Steyn way

Glad you like it. His GF might be cute but she is as thick as a brick, according to my sources.

Fellow SA supporter here…and may I just say…

ALL cricketers’ girlfriends are somewhat thick…

It takes a special breed to stick with a guy that is home for only 23 days a year…

Or maybe all people are stupid for believing that we are meant to be monogamous?
