The Chameleon
The pitch was green, the crowd were tense as Alf led out the men
Millions watched on tele as England played again
The red shirted players with three lions on their chest
Were going to play a football match to prove we were the best
Wearing the shirts of England were three Hammers strong and stout
Aided by some Northerners who were there to help them out
There was a Charlton in the midfield whose presence was immense
Not forgetting wor Jackie who was a tower in out defense
So the Germans scored the first goal but the equaliser came
And soon we'd scored a second and that should have been the game
But the ref he gave a free kick, to this day it was never a foul
And whatever was to happen was going to happen now
And in the very last second as everyone watched their clocks
The Germans took the free kick and the ball went into our box
It bounced around for ages but we could'nt get it clear
And the Germans scored a lucky goal and how their fans did cheer
And then there was controversy, did the ball really cross the line
The linesman said he thought it had and everything was fine
Everyone thought it had ended as Hursty ran down the pitch
If the ref had stopped the game just then it would have been a bitch
But he stuffed it in the onion bag and, god, there was a noise
We all cheered so loudly for Mooro and the boys
As he lifted up the trophy we all sung 'god save the queen'
England had won the World Cup and this wasn't just a dream!
