I was listening to FALAA the other day and was struck by how apposite many of the lyrics are in the context of the current World Cup.
Having enjoyed the recent kitchen lyrics thread, I thought I'd start a similar one.
A couple of mediocre examples to start you off :
England : it's passing strange...passing slowly
Columbia : possession ... Taking over
Etc etc
Over to you ...

England fades away, in your eyes
Four strings good, six strings bad
Ninety-four degrees - The temperature out there.

so, in the same vain, it fits also: I hear a dive Robben and Mexico down.
Here's the story
No time to lose (like the present)
Now I've lost my friends
Now I've lost friends
It's not my party,
Never will be
Feeling out-of-place,
I'm not happy
A touch of the storm cloud...
Roughage in a comradeship and conversations
Conversations, everything's so run-of-the-mill
We stand still...
And time slips back,
And time slips back...
Back to the garden,
Time slips back
Back in the dark rooms
Time slips back
Back in the dark room
Back to the dark age
Put me on the rack
We stand still
Time slips back
Recount movements
Recount movements
Watch us grow
Watch us fall from grace
Watch us fall flat on our face
But you always fall on your feet
Tell me how you always
Fall on your feet
Tell me how
Tell me how
Tell me how
Oh tell me how

Sorry for the off-topic post, but I've always heard this asczuczu wrote: Roughage in a comradeship and conversations
"what became of comradeship and conversations?"
I tried to tell her

I don't really know what for.
