This is not my swan song
This is not my gone song
This is not my last hurrah
You’re either in or you’re out
You’re either playing or you are not
How hard can it be – to give it all you got
When all you got is…
I took somebody’s place
Somebody with more runs than me
Somebody will take my place
Somebody with less runs than me
It’s always the same
Nobody’s getting younger
It’s always the same
Somebody’s gotta cop the blame
Why don’t I speak to Steven Waugh?
And ask him what a scrap is?
Why don’t I speak to Shivnarine Chanderpaul?
And ask him what to bat like crap is?
We were the brightest stars
Playing like children play, with their dinky cars
Now we are nowhere half as cute
So we’re told, you can either fly away
Or take a chute
Take a chute, take a chute
But
This is not my swan song
This is not my gone song
This is not my last hurrah.
And I
Think I know what a scrap is
Think I know what to bat like crap is.
Think I know.
I think I know.

The original crabs
Its bird season... time to hunt those birds. One by one, the media makes them fall down... we bloggers take those occasional pot shots.
SB... how could you forget Jimmy Adams or that completely atrocious and painful batsmen called Geoffrey Boycott... they are giant crabs.
