1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Two footed challenge,
Face stuck into the ground,
Making the bruise very round,
Watching the match eating a cheeseburger which costs a few pound.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Defending the dangerous tackle to the referee,
The player’s hovering around him like a bumble bee,
Getting some support from his team mate Lee,
But that doesn’t prevent him from reaching into his pocket.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Look at me I’m the referee,
Because the other player is down in great pain your sent off,
He might be a sissy and may not be that tough,
But some players are just too rough,
That tackle is just enough.
Manager complaning like Brian Clough.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Referee just showing off to try and be authorititive,
Getting angry in the crowd because the referee is being too harsh,
Just because it was a strong challenge doesn’t make it a foul.
