Monkey Business
Knit one purl one
Had no one told them to beware geeks bearing gifts
For wooden horse read cheeky monkey
Pulling the wool over their eyes
Look at me without a stitch onPass your slip stitch over your headWhat a pair of strikers you have up frontMy defence is in all sorts of troubleITV Digital one Football league nil
When money’s only a promise it’s caveat vendor
No gambling for Vegas
Only the monkey and the league were stuffedI’m looking forward to our midfield tussleYour ball winner versus my distributorNo route one stuff from meI’ve trained for extra timeThe double back cross stitch worked wonders
With Carlton needles and Granada woolWhen the ITVD logo began to unravelThere was no one left to blameI’ll happily absorb your pressureMake exploratory runs down your flanksGently probe your sensitive spotsUntil I achieve total penetrationWith Keegan’s flair for tacticsThey forgot to check the players’ registrationRed carded for incompetence by the top refereeTheir grey suits should go towards the armbands now requiredI’m in the box. I shootA loud roar, explosion of colours, GOALWhistle blasts inside our heads. A score drawNo penalties for us. We play for love. The game goes on.
