What is it about football

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 That supports abuse
Where racist sexist homophobic
Chants are heralded and kids
Join in thinking it’s cool
To be like the adults
Sectarian songs that claim support
And God’s on which side?
Jesus wrapped in flags and scarves
Joined with the pilgrims football bound
“No room in the club for Jews”
Say those who hiss and hiss and hiss…

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 The gates of Auschwitz never closed.
