The Ego has Landed…….

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Don’t tell me that you love this club
I’m sick of spin and lies
Dont kiss the badge then threaten us
With more of your “goodbyes”

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Take your sorry arrse away
And take your silver pounds
And let your agents negotiate
For you a newer ground

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 To take the punters for a ride
With you across the park
So what they buy the shirt and burn
You name upon their hearts

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The only footie that I played
Was on the streets and fields
Replica shirts I proudly wore
Goals scored in me wildest dreams

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 The club it means the world to me
Doesn’t even know my name
Except to charge me sky high prices
When I go to the games

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 It sends me emails offering
The latest ipod deals around
“Help the Academy” it gently pleads
Whilst following YOU around

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 I’ll never do what you have done
That shirt won’t ever be mine
For that would be a miracle
Like water into wine

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 But you take it all for granted
And you live beyond the truth
Of folks like me who’d love to be
Just one day in your boots.
