Tale of a magician, of a unique king
A background artist, great at orchestrating
Leaving defenders on the floor, left, right and centre
Shutting up the mouths of tons of haters

When he joined it was so difficult to comprehend
He gave us hope that our trophy drought would finally end
Rejecting Man Utd, he came as a shining light, out of the blue
‘We’ve got Mesut Ozil’ was it a dream or had it really come true

Smooth and silky, great on the eye
Grinding out a win when he was flying high
Tracking back and defensive work might not be his style
But for the team he was always ready to go the extra mile

With a swish of his wand like left foot
He has given many teams the
boot
Assisting people on and off the pitch
At times, unfairly singled out when the team was in a ditch

Feints, slick one-twos and back heels galored during his tenure
One of the best technicians the league has seen, for sure
He has undeniable quality, that’s a fact
It wasn’t his fault that he was given a big contract!
Hope he’ll be appreciated and loved at fenerbahce amongst his mates
And remembered at arsenal as an all time great

All those years ago when he joined who would have thought
That he would leave arsenal like this, like a forgotten afterthought
A toast to you, For the beautiful memories that we’ve shared together
For the unforgettable moments that you’ve given us to remember

The assist king, the pass master, the breaker of game plans
In me you’ve got a life long fan!
