Beckham's kick and Lampard's head
A whole hour we had lead

Now terraced grief sits swathed in red
England's win, swiftly dead

The mourners gather hearts of lead
Hopes of glory now are fled

No more the hallowed turf to tred
Englands players - early bed
Just change the names for the next world cup.
(It's about the football world cup - or the soccer world cup if you aren't from these parts. England's national sport...if only we were good at it!)
