1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 If you pass it to Beckham, maybe he’ll pass it back to you
Or maybe to Owen and then we’ll see what Michael can do
You’re a tall geezer
A real defence teaser
With your long skinny limbs, you’re all elbows and knees
We don’t care how you do it, just put it in the net please.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
Are you gonna fluff this chance or
Are you gonna score?
I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
From 1984!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 I wish you’d eat more mate, because it’s sending me to despair
You’re all skin and bone, yeah, but I guess you’re quite good in the air
You look like a dimbo
With your limbs all akimbo
But at six foot seven, and only eight stone
There’s a chance you could help the team bring the cup home.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 And, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
Are you gonna fluff this chance or
Are you gonna score?
I said, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
From 1984!

Notes

Once again a rewrite (I know, it’s easy to do – but I enjoy it) This time Arctic Monkeys song ‘I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor.’
I’d love to hear the crowd chant this after he scores.
