SEN • May 2nd, 2025 4:48 pm

After a tough week for his Fireball co-host, David King set out to lighten the mood for Kane Cornes by re-writing classic hit We Didn't Start the Fire.
Addressing all those within footy, sport and, well, the world that have made it onto Cornes' "list", the final product is a smash hit.
Have a watch and check out the lyrics in full:
Harry Sheezel, Sonja Hood, Jy Simpkin, not that Good Dimma Hardwick, Jacob Hopper, Tim Taranto
Harley’s cramping, Adam Simpson, more Kane on the television Clarry’s contract, Petty’s forward, Goodwin’s gotta go
*Bont’s calf, Bevo, Collingwood, old and slow Evans, with G and I, and then Carlton had a cry
Ice bath, JHF, thinks he’s better than the rest He’s a sook, Kane won’t look, St Kilda, goodbye*
CHORUS We didn’t start the fire, it was always burning since the Corn was chirping. We didn’t start the fire, No we didn’t light it, but we tried to fight it.
*Matthew Nicks, And Tex, then Rachele, who’s next? Adam Cerra, run forever, Derm thinks he’s a c--k
Went to Seven for the Dosh, Chris Davies, David Koch Port moves Ken on, here’s a walk and talk*
*Kyrgios, Cam Green, free cars from Maughan Thiem McGovern, Stephenson, two days as as fireman
Freo, In The West, Hawthorn, you know the rest Out in space, across the face, Awww Sheridan*
CHORUS
Two rucks, Sean Darcy, still loves DGB. Never happy, don’t know why, doesn’t have a social life
Clarko, Sheezy-Ball, doesn’t touch the alcohol. Always gets us in strife, only talks to his wife
*Brodie Holland, TJ, useless AFLPA Luke Darcy, Richo, Cotchin is a no-go
That bloke Dylan Leach, Tony Shaw and Daisy Lloydy, Browny, Damo, f--k the Sunday Footy Show*
CHORUS
*Pleasure Corn, he’s still, in love with Sam Mitchell Stringer, Cameron Ling, injury to Max King
Salaries made public, Marsh thinks he’s a p---k Hometown, Gather Round, belted in the boxing ring*
Too soft, Nik Cox, bought his son a s--t box “Get up early, watch the game”, what else do I have to say?
CHORUS
Umpires, Laura Kane, Ben Cousins Hall of fame Paddy Cripps, Jack Macrae, Sportsbet, whoever pays Hutchy, Riewoldt, Caroline, hating on the airlines
Shaking hands before the game, doesn’t sit well with Kane
*"Lawnography with Jimmy Thwaites”, one more thing that he hates
*Robbo’s not a fan, Jack Darling, media bans Doesn’t rate.
Darcy Moore, working with him is a chore Long term deals, what a bore, I can't take it anymore!**
CHORUS
