Keaneian Rhapsody

Just a bit of fun eh

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
We were stuck with you
No escape from your weekly fee
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies, and see
Your wages were daylight theft, you're now a mercenary
Harry's easy come, easy go
Wages high, sell-on low
Anywhere the Keane goes, doesn't really matter to me, or Levy

Keano, just took a shot
He used to shoot it straight
But by now it's much too late
Rafa, you did break the man
And now he's had to move to LA
Daniel, o-oo o-ooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time in six months
Buy me back, buy me back, as if I hadn't ever transferred

It's too late, I'm sold at last
But yet more money in the bank
And the LA life is dank
Goodbye everybody - I've got to train
Gotta leave you all behind and try to play!
Mama, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooooo
I don't want to play
Already I wish I'd never been sold at all

I see a pointy, shouty bloke of a man
Keano-o, Keano-o will you do the point-and-shout please?
Somersaults and shouting - very very frightening, me
Keano, Keano
Keano, Keano
Keano - he miss-you-know-o-o-o

But I'm just an LA fan - nobody knows yet
(He's just an LA fan from a Celtic family)
Spare us our lives from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go - will you let me go?
For god's sakes! Yes - of course we'll let you go - sell him on!
For god's sakes! Yes - of course we'll let you go - get rid quick!
For god's sakes! Yes - of course we'll let you go - wages saved!
Yes we'll let you go - let me go (of course)
Always let you go - let me go
Always let you go - o-o-o-o-o
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh Daniel Levy, Daniel Levy, Daniel Levy let me stay
'cos you, of course, have a salary put aside for Me
for Me
for Me

So you think I can play and expect me to score?
So you thought pointing's good then but not anymore?
Oh Levy - how little you know me
I just need a chance - just need a chance on the bench

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Not playing really matters
Anyone can see
Not playing really matters, to me

Anyway the money blows...
