Beckham is dropped

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Once the golden boy
(Or golden balls to a very close person),
The midfield general of England,
Around whom the team was built
Is dropped!

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 High hopes for the world cup
But cruel time caught up,
This pale imitation of football wizard
Tearfully handed in the captains arm band.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Six caps off a century
But sentiment has no say
The England new Boss
Will stamp his authority,
Beckham is dropped!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 As Beckham slips into obscurity
Posh might restart to Sing?
McClaren better be praying
For a winning start,
Or not only will music lovers
But Beckham fans
Will also be baying for his blood.
