A Tale of Two Nations

Added on 29 June 2010

Heads low and embarrassed

Defenceless and risible

Compared to Brazil

Despite Kaka invisible

The English collective

Head home on the plane

Lampo and Johno

And Stevo and Wayne

Muppet and Animal

Wanker and Stain

Utterly hopeless

They've done it again

Brazil magnificent

With midfield generals

England impotent

The outfield venereal

Tepid and tortured

And lacking in grace

Bless them, they're tired

A bit short of pace

Give it some time

And they can wake from the dream

To declare themselves favourites

For 2014
