King of the Kippax

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 As a youngster falling in love with football
And all things Liverpool Fc
I watched Colin Bell in his pomp for City
A blur of blonde brilliance
Bright shining in light blue
His fireworks lit up Maine Road
And Anfield, and any pitch privileged to catch his play
Like Nijinsky he ran rings round the rest
The man with three lungs.

Notes

Colin Bell – 1946-2021 RIP.
