I don't know what they're playing for
their battings shocking and their bowling's poor
the England team are already knocked out
they're coming home early this time
and this is not a one day test you say
it's some world cup thing held in Zimbabwe
it' politicians want you to come home
but you will anyway and they all know

that we're losing our favourite game -
screwed up at cricket again
the run count was was paltry
we've screwed up at cricket again

we never know what you're practising for
it don't affect your results anymore
you had your eye on the world cup out there
but it is evident you'll not be getting anywhere
with the impression that you'd try and fight
but still the team is playing really sh!te
you should just pack in move to careers new
the bat's repacked but it's hardly been used

that we're losing our favourite game -
screwed up at cricket again
that we're losing our favourite game -
screwed up at cricket again
the run count was was paltry
we've screwed up at cricket again

that we're losing our favourite game -
screwed up at cricket again
not tried, not tried
but we've lost the game
we've screwed up at cricket
the English team players lost again
