Match Of The Day Lyrics - Genesis

There's the Reds and there's the Greens 

Super slicks and has beens, 

They're accompanied by three men dressed in black, 

One's a whistle, two are flags, and quite often they're the drags 

Kick the ball into the goal, they put it back. 

Yes Match of the Day's 

The only way, to spend your Saturday 

Each side's eleven men, with numbers on their backs 

But at a distance they all tend to look the same 

But some own their boutiques, well they clean up every week 

Inciting riots, causing chaos, such a shame! 

But Match of the Day's 

The only way 

We spend our Saturday

And that's not all, our mates the keepers 

Slippin' and sliding in the mud 

Arms as long as creepers 

Send him off Ref' ***!++? 

Where are your specs Ref' +++***! 

Kick you to death Ref'! XX**? 

Oi! Are you deaf Ref' X*+X*!? 

There's a few things before we go 

That I think you ought to know 

Obstruction, Body Checking, heavy tackles 

So put on your hat and scarf 

Have a drink, have a larf' 

From the terrace you can see your men do battle 

Yes Match of the Day's 

The only way 

You can spend your Saturday 

Don't forget, the trainers with their sponges 

Managers with open cheques, liquid business lunches 

Send 'im off Ref' ***!++? 

Where are your specs Ref'!***&&&! 

Kick you to death Ref'! XX**? 

Oi! Are you deaf Ref' X&+X&+!? 

...Phfff! Good game 'ey, Ron?... 

...D'you see that goal in the Second Half? oh!... 

...Bit of a dirty tackle that, mate!... 

...I reckon I should've had a bet on it myself!... 

...We paid 400, 000 pound for him, you realise that?... 

...Oh - look out, here comes a bottle ... 

...Yes, fancy a pint then? My round...
