I was there
when he chased
and she outpaced
leaving his heart outraced
a feeling Phil Collins couldn’t erase.
But no trace
of the lost race
could be placed
on his face…
I was there
when he played the game
to win the dame.
It ended the same
but with less shame.
Another’s the dame became
and no one was to blame…
I was there
when the lucky brute
won the loot
by staying put.
What a beaut’,
So cute…
For them I root,
My vuvuzela I hoot
and toot
and hoot…
