1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 You could have given her flowers
Hand-picked from your organic patch
But your game went to a replay
So you got her tickets for the match

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 You could have made her chocolates
In your immaculate bachelor pad
But you ditched sweet dark cocoa
For a night out with the lads

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 You could have bought her diamonds
A proposal tied with ribbon bow
But football is your true love
So I guess that she’d say NO

Notes

Due to rearranged fixtures and FA Cup replays, many blokes have hastily swapped romantic dinners with their partners in order to go to the game. Tut tut, footballs administrators have shown no regard for
Cupids Big Day.

For us lucky Norwich City fans, our replay is Tuesday 13th, so our plans for a heart-shaped fried egg on burnt toast is still on.
