Can’t say I’ve heard that before and to be honest I’m still happy with my life having never come across it. I’ve heard better. Don’t think I’ve heard worse to be fair. Lyrics are pretty limited as well.
Oh god, everyone I knew who supported other teams took the piss out of this and we played it at every home game. Cringeworthy stuff.
The others on this thread I hadn't heard and frankly would rather not hear again!
The only half decent one I can recall is down at the bush. Can't find it online but I recall the words approximately as follows:
Down at the bush on a Saturday night we meet after the game and we put it all right the ones we stuck in and the ones that we missed that short sighted ref, he'll go down on the list (player name I can't recall) was in form, Gerry tore them apart and Stan was there to knock em in Don was incredible, boy can he head a ball Rangers forever will win.
Chrous: We're going up, up, down at the bush. We're going up, up, down at the bush. We're going up, up, down at the bush. We're going up, up, up, up down at the bush.
Followed by singing "superhoops, superhoops, la, la, la, la , la" in high pitched voices!

QPR The Greatest 1967 By Mark Lazarus After our 3 2 league cup final win
Who'd have thought we'd have done it Who'd have thought we've here Who'd have thought we'd be knocking back Champagne Who'd have thought we'd have won it Who'd have thought we'd get the cheer When the final whistle blew we'd won the game
Chorus QPR they're the greatest QPR they're the bet Queens Park Rangers are on the up and up QPR they're the greatest QPR theyre the best Now we're heading for the European cup
Now West Brom they were 2 leagues up At the start they had it tricked And hold tight we were feeling pretty grim Cos the 2 they got past Peter blimey mate theh gad us licked, but old Alec still felt sure that we could win, good old Alec
Chorus
We came out with mike the master who wS urging us to go and the Roger upped and headed us a goal, Rodney equalised soon after and before the ref could blow. Well I added yet another to the toll
Chorus
Who you got then? Well theres Frank and Keith and Tony and Jim's not retiring yet. There's Les Allen Ronnie Hunt and Roger's twin With a team like that not only can you flipping well get set but you bet your life you're sure to bloody win
Chorus

Even though this is clearly a shocker of a song I love it because it evokes memories of my first years going to LR in the early 80s with my late Dad, when I hear it I can see the lights and taste the sausage roll from the kiosk in SA Road!
Amazing how evocative a song can be ...... what I'd give to go back 😢

Dear god, have we always been sh1t? Just having one of those moments where you see something you love as others do. I'm comforted by the fact there's at least 12 thousand others who feel the same, I guess we could arrange a group therapy session at half time?

Got it on a QPR CD compilation of 15 songs including Pigbag and the Steptoe & Son theme tune!. It's called: "QPR THE GREATEST THE SONGS OF QUEENS PARK RANGERS FC"

I haven't heard anyone sing this for donkey's years so I Googled it. The song is actually Ship Ahoy. Written in 1905, I'm afraid the original words wouldn't be acceptable in this PC days.

As football club songs go, I thought that was one of the best. Chelsea still belt out 'blue is the colour' over the tannoy to this day. A lot to be said for tradition. And as a football club, we say the least.
