The Beatles - "Kenny You're A Rich Man"

Kenny Miller has been simply amazing the first two matches of this season. I can only assume the aerodynamically-domed Scotsman has made off with some of YP Lee's secret stash, because he's looking  younger, fitter, faster and more focused than last year. Marvellous stuff to see such a rejuvenation in the making.

Years of leading chants has taught me that you just can't go wrong with a Beatles tune. People will pick up on the tune right away, and they'll even hum or la-la-la their way through it if they don't know all the words.

So here's a brand new one, fresh from the oven, to serenade our big money striker from Scotland The Brave.

To the tune of: "Baby You're A Rich Man" - The Beatles

Kenny you're a rich man!
Kenny you're a rich man!
Kenny you're a rich man too!
He keeps all his money in a shortbread tin
For Irn Bru! 
What a thing to do!

If you haven't had Irn Bru before, you're missing out. It's a strangely delicious yet completely indescribable Scottish soft drink. It's orange in colour, but doesn't remotely taste like Orange Crush. I'm not going to even try to explain it, but feel free to ask Kenny, Rennie or @aftncanada .

Here's the corresponding music video. Jump ahead to the 1:15 mark.
