WHEN SATURDAY COMES

 

I support them as they’re from my hometown

I’ve supported them for years it would seem

Before the start of every single game at home

They announce the crowd changes to the team

 

Come next year the team may well be in Europe

But that would only happen if there is a war I fear

If you ask them “what time does the match start?”

They just reply “well what time can you get here”

 

The team does a lap of honor if they win the toss

This does at least get the meager crowd humming

To take the pressure off and to help our keeper

We put a Bell in the ball so he can hear it coming

 

We have the strongest team in the football league

From the bottom we have to hold the rest up

We're always the bookie's favorite for the drop

For we’ve never won a title a trophy or a cup

 

My father exposed me to this when I was a boy

Since, Saturday afternoons are spent in torture 

I now expose my children to sad match days

And their children will also suffer in the future
