Nineteen Ninety-Five

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Do you remember ninety-five?
Were you alive in ninety-five?
Blur had a House in the Country.
Oasis Rolled with It.
John Major lived in Number Ten.
The Beeb had the rights to the Cricket.
The Pound was strong in ninety-five.
No-one got knifed in ninety-five.
No, nothing wrong with ninety-five.
Bill Clinton in the White House.
We’d never heard of Trump.
Everton went to Wembley,
And won the FA Cup.

Inspired by the banner – 1995 – displayed by some Liverpool supporters during the recent FA Cup derby.
