It's Half Past Four And We're Two-Nil Down
Liner notes
This is -- or at least was -- the name of a Dundee fanzine. A review described it as a 'Marxist fantasy'. As the graffiti says, 'je suis marxiste: tendance Groucho'.The second goal's gone it, it's half past four
We could play all night and still not score
There's ten thousand people, headed for the nearest bar
And in stands across the country,
The fans are feeling just like we are.
As one we're grabbed by the same idea
We turn to face the directors' box and jeer
There's ten thousand people, deciding they'll not be ignored
And in stands across the country,
The fans start chanting 'Sack the board.'
Within the week, the board has got the sack
The fans start planning their next line of attack
There's ten thousand people, picketing the SFA
And in stands across the country,
The old guard is firmly washed away
Other nations are not far behind,
Within a fortnight, FIFA has resigned
The ten men who ran football, sadly hang their head in shame
In a car park in Geneva, they mutter
"This is a poor advert for the game."
There's one thing that none of us support
We'll not have money ruining our sport
Since ten thousand people raised their voices in revolt
In stands across the country:
When we're two-nil down at home, at least it's our fault.
