If I busted a gut, to make a rush for the bus,
I could get home indoors for the match
I could pack up work early, that way I’d surely,
Have time on me hands to sit back

With me tea on me lap I’d cheer on the chaps
Mounting wave after wave of attacks
All of the above is what would, should or could have been,
If things panned out well for this fan

But every time I take internationals in,
On the t.v like most armchair fans
I’m sick to the teeth, of those lame excuses they give
As, to why, the national team scuppered me plans

A new morn will court the worst hangovers
After the national team’s failed to turn up
After all we’re….., we’ve a devine right to be challengers
In the Euro’s, The Friendlies, World Cups

So I stay at work, the wireless on in the background,
Half an ear on all aspects of play
That way I don’t have to see, just what’s wrong with our team
As it upsets the whole mood of the day

I’ve tried hard to consider, if, one day, they’ll deliver
And give me back a pride that’s been hurt
But up to now it’s been maybe’s, if’s and more but’s
So that’s why I listen and…. get on with me work!
