The date on which England do play,
Is an odd time for a meeting I’d say,
But tho it does suck,
It turns out I’m in luck,
As Exeter University’s having their open day.
Something that would make most of us bleat,
Is deciding on the following time for us to meet,
Wednesday at 4.10,
As its this time when,
Hopefully England will Slovenia beat.
There is a creature as fine as a pearl,
Strange and scary who’ll make your toes curl,
It seems to gain powers,
From a cut bunch of flowers,
This is the mysterious thing known as a girl.
A curious thing happened last Sunday,
When I was walking towards Staplehay,
The weather was hot,
And I found this quaint spot,
With a pond where the kingfishers play.

Netherlands today beat Denmark,
But the game really failed to spark,
Cameroon lost,
A game Japan bossed,
Italy and Paraguay drew after dark.
Against the Aussies the Germans scored four,
They had chances to score even more,
They were good but still,
The red card for Cahill,
Was a decision that was particularly poor.
There are plenty of places where,
You can watch tonights affair,
As for the score for Korea,
And Argentina no fear,
If its not England today I don’t care.
…
There are some things that are better not seen,
Like what happened to poor Robert Green,
Yet ITV showed an advert,
Which seemed to divert,
Our attention from Gerrard’s goal that had been.
So France and Uruguay could not score,
The game ended up as a draw,
Gonzales tackled too hard,
And hence got a red card,
But apart from that the game was a bore.
The other game was so much more fun,
As the hosts and Mexico both scored one,
The crowd made so much noise,
Cheering on their boys,
As they played under the African sun.
There once was a programme on 4,
That was such a tedious bore,
There’ll be no other,
Series of Big Brother,
Thank goodness this shite is nor more.
…
It usually involved a housemate
Who the others would always berate
We’d hope some had nookie
And we’d bet at the bookie
For the winner who I’d always hate
…
So its come to this one last boring time
That a bunch of good for nothing slime
Will live everyday
In the same way
It really is a televisual crime

Alkisah ada seekor bekantan,
Asalnya dari Kalimantan,
Bentuk hidungnya mesum,
Tapi baunya harum,
Lebih harum dari ratu selatan.
(English Version)
There once was a proboscis monkey,
That in Kalimantan you could see,
He had a rude nose,
But smelt like a rose,
Unlike the Queen of the South who was smelly.
