Oh I know it is too soon - it's only the quarter finals [img]smile.gif[/img] ......... but :
(To the music of "The Band Played Waltzing Matilda")
This story it starts in the quiet grey halls
Of the beautiful township of Oxford
Where a young Timmy Henman was born to the world
And a name that has now become legend
For in One nine nine one (1991)
His country said son
Out on centre court
Glory's there to be won
So they gave him a racquet
And said "go have fun"
But they din't tell him now't about winnin
And the band played Waltzing Matilda
As the Aussies showed Tim how to play
Pat Rafter, and Hewitt
Oh they knew they could do it
They whooped Tim and caused much dismay
But year after year Brits they answered the call
When Timmy went out there to play
And the hopes of a nation peered over the wall
At the early round Henman display
But while promise is one thing
It's triumph that's lacked
And the crowds they gave up
As poor Tim was "shellacked"
And the people they ask
"Who's this loser we backed"
And I ask myself the same question
And the band plays Waltzing Matilda
Just like in Two Thousand and Two (2002)
Sure Lleyton is gone
But our boys struggle on
And this year's the year of the "Poo" [img]smile.gif[/img]
Waltzing Matilda
Waltzing Matilda
Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me
And Tim's ghost may be heard
As you pass by the Centre Court
Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me
