Down To London To Be The King

Cropping of the picture of Brady and Belichick sucks.  Sorry.

I used to write a London Calling parody for each team going to London.  

I can't this year.  I'm a Patriots homer.

So with apologies to Joe Jackson:  To hear it click here.

 

Stop - whats that sound

Its the death rattle of that Tampa team

Stop - listen again

Its the sound of laughter all along the Thames

 

Hey - whats my line

Do I have to stay here 'til the end of the game?

I'm good lookin' and playin' smarter

I wanna see life after the fourth quarter

 

So if they ask you where I am

I'm in the back on the sideline

On a bench watching Hoyer

Gone down to London to win a laugher.

Down to London - down to London

Gone down to London to be the king

 

Hey - what's your name

The opposing corners all seem to look the same

You should try to stick with Moss

And one he will win, and you get a loss

 

Stop - whats that sound

Seems like the TDs are still swingin' around

Hey - can you hear me up there

Or is there anybody left to care

 

So if you ask me where they are

They were bored and left for a soho bar

or pub crawling by the underground

Gone down to London where every team is bound

Down to London - down to London

Gone down to London to be the king

 

So I ask you should I cry or laugh

When it is over before the half

A hooded sweater against the cold

Gone down to London turning coal into gold

Down to London - down to London

Gone down to London to be the king
