1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 When your face down in the mud
Chewing blood and cud
It takes a lot to stop the tears of angst

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 When some big galoot has put his boot
In your thigh as you did shoot
When he offers you a hand up you say ‘No Thanks’

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 The referee’s sights a joke
You’ve been spat at and had pokes
To your ribs and vicious kicks along the flanks

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Today is not your day
No matter what way you play
There’s signs of disenchantment in the ranks

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Oh, here’s a bit of news
To take away those blues
A corner kick is squirming in the box
The thug who hurt your thigh
Take’s a kick at it so fly
Then hauls you down and gets himself sent off

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 You bravely step up to take take the pen
Hold out one nil, to beat the ten
Who thought that you and the boys were easy meat

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 The final whistle blows
Sometimes thats how it goes
You toast success whilst the other team taste defeat
