His Gods Do Play Football

To the rulings laid down by the Bishop of Rome to the letter she obey
One you'll see in her local church sunday and every week day
But her husband is very different to her his Gods do play football
The heroes of his favourite club adorn his bedroom wall
Their only offspring their eighteen years old daughter goes to church with mum whilst at the local pub
He sits with his drinking mates watching their favourite football club
On t v performing away from home in the big weekend game
One can say of him he lives his life in other peoples fame
As a family they seem to function well though different in some way
He is a football fanatic his wife and daughter to their God do pray
And yet despite their different ways they get along okay
Though his Gods like him are mere mortals destined to die one day
His wife and daughter very religious but pictures of his football heroes on his bedroom wall
And his Gods like him are mortals though they do play football.
