Opa’s Patella

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 When Didi Hamann is old and grey
and sits his granddaughter on his lap
He can tell her the story that lies behind
his each and every Deutschland cap

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 How he scored the last goal at Wembley
from a powerful long-range kick
His five trophies in a calendar year
making the Liverpool midfield tick

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 The glorious second-half in Istanbul
so many interesting tales to tell her
But may spare her one about Essien
who tried to kick off Opa’s patella

Notes

Chelsea v. Liverpool, 6th December 2005.

Michael Essien, shame on you.
