For Pep

Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world

 

Josep Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.

Josep Dei, you who take away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us.

Josep Dei, you who take away the sins of the world, grant us peace.

 

You, Messianic

In the face of turning trends -

Greece '04,became all in 2010.

You who washed our feet,

Let loose upon that sublime field

The form of God made manifest.

Now stricken you die for us

In the face of Mourinho -

Persistently monochromatic cardigans.

Let down from your cross

On the lips of a thousand apostles

An endless conversation hushed onward.

Josep Dei, you who take away the sins of the world, grant us peace.

Phil Babb Kebab (Isn't It A Pity)

Isn't it a pitta
Isn't a shame
That he crashed into a goalpost
And bought himself some pain
How on the first page of pictures
When you google his name
Is a picture of a kebab
Isn't it a shame.

His career was reasonably good
But how do you explain
How it's boiled down to two images
Isn't it a shame
Due to these cruel twists of fate
People won't ever see
He was an alright defender
Isn't it a pity.

Forgetting Phil Babb now, isn't it a pity?
Forgetting Phil Babb now, isn't it a shame?
