Their Heads Hung Low

Added on 03 July 2010

There were four

As the world crumbled

And ambition and hope lay shredded

Brazil

The playground bullies

Who could not stand

When someone else stood up

The Netherlands

How we hated them

For spoiling the party

But only for a few hours

And now they are the heroes

And redemption

Rests on their

Arrogant shoulders

Ghana

Distraught

Their chances gone

On the fetid rotting crossbar of despair

Uruguay

For years they had a reputation

As a bunch of

Cheating diving bastards

Now they do not have that reputation

So much anymore

But it's not because they're not

A bunch of cheating diving bastards

It's because most teams

Are a bunch of cheating diving bastards

So they no longer stand out so much

But in the end

None shall sleep
