WE WANT OUR GAME BACK

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 A pawn in Murdoch’s global plan:
The local Man. United fan.
Though born and bred in Fishersgate.
Why not the Albion?’ They’re crap, mate!’
He’ll watch them play on Sky TV
(Such brave, unflinching loyalty!)
And buy his kids their merchandise –
Still garbage at one-tenth the price.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Stuff Murdoch, Man.U, Sky TV
Stuff Pinstriped Football, PLC!
Stuff Premier League, stuff the FA
and take the moneymen away.
Give the League clubs a proper share
(Yes, MAKE them do it, Tony Blair!)
They roll in wealth – we’re on our knees.
So can we have our game back, please?
