TEAMS
I want to pick a football club - I want to be a fan
All the blokes at work support a team
And I want to be a man
I want to pick a football club - It’s a difficult decision
I won’t support my local team
Cos they’re in the wrong division
I want to pick a football club. I’m making my selection
I don’t think its wrong to choose a club
With which you’ve no connection
I want to pick a football club - And pretend I really care
About the city that they come from
Even though I’m not from there
I want to pick a football club. But although Ive tried and tried
Ive never quite been able
To find a link to Merseyside
I want to pick a football club. The tickets are quite dear
But it’s not a real problem
I’ll just be going once a year
I want to pick a football club. And I will pretend to mourn
The tragedy of a city
Where I wasn’t even born
I want to pick a football club. I’m prepared to make excuses
For the owner’s links to criminals
Or human rights abuses
I want to pick a football club. I’m looking at the teams
I need to pick one with a shirt
That goes with Armani Jeans
I want to pick a football club. But I don’t know the songs
But Ive watched a YouTube video
So now I can sing along
I want to pick a football club. Where the catering’s not crap
Where I can have my half time sushi
And an avocado wrap
I want to pick a football club. The manager’s from Spain
Then Italy, then Germany
And it all goes round again
I want to pick a football club. So I can do a foreign trip
And drape my self in an England flag
And wear the latest strip
I want to pick a football club. I’m on the Glory Hunt
I’m sure the local fans are joking
When they call me Tourist ……….Runt!
I want to pick a football club. I think Im nearly set
It’s ChelArseCity United
Cos I’m hedging all my bets!
