1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 am I now the only one
thinking this should not be done?
common sense sometimes there’s none
made behind closed doors

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 all these lives that we have lost
all theses bridges we have crossed
let’s hope games have no grave cost
played behind closed doors

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 project restart’s coming by
we all know the reason why
this is not for you and I
there behind closed doors

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 while this virus spreads and kills
money rules and always will
broadcasters must get their fill
here behind closed doors

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 however you love the game
sometimes you just stop and say
is there not some other way
than behind closed doors?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 my first game was in the street
in some park in Summer’s heat
now it’s just for the elite
and behind closed doors

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 lengths that clubs are going to
this is not some little flu
all of us have worried too
behind our closed doors

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Premier League the money game
blunders on always the same
football but not in my name
here behind closed doors

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 am I still the only one
thinking this should not be done?
common sense sometimes there’s none
made behind closed doors

Notes

Just getting this off my chest.
I knows lots will disagree , but given the War-like experience and huge loss of life across the planet… and all we are still going through with no end or vaccine in sight..
it still feels very wrong to me and way too soon. Thoughts?
