Don’t Let Him Near a Microphone

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 A marvellous talent
On the field
His skills
Are fast becoming legendary
He sees
He moves
He jinks
He scores.
His goals are many,
But please
Don’t let him near a microphone!

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 He plays for the team,
He plays for the town,
Adopted though it is.
Admired by all,
The fans, the players
The refs, the pundits
The grannies.
He mesmerises
All he comes up against
But please
Don’t let him near a microphone!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 His accent hurts my ears, they say
It’s harsh
And few can understand him.
His command of the language
Always lets him down,
A shame, for he’s such a nice lad.
So please – give him sub titles,
But please
Don’t let him near a microphone!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 He’s not very bright
By normal academic standards,
Can’t add, and his th’s are all f’s
But give him a ball and that shirt on his back
And everyone loves him.
So Tv producers – be kind to the lad
Show his face and talent to the world,
But please, please, please
Don’t let him near a microphone!
