The Sound Of Cricket

I got bored so I wrote a song.

Actually, I was inspired by hearing the latest cover of “The Sound of Silence” by Disturbed and Taher Shah

Sorry I didn’t use the studio sound equipment or proper camera. Most of it is at a friends place.

YouTube link if you want it.

Lyrics

Hello cricket my old friend.

I’ve come to talk with you again.

We have an issue with commentary

It’s plainly there for all to see

When James Brayshaw is allowed behind a microphone

His calls are overblown

Channel 9 is ruining

The sounds of cricket

And then there is this guy called Warne

Whose face is plastic surgeon porn

Marlon doesn’t like him much at all

On the field they nearly had a brawl

And dating sites will never be the same

Now that there’s Shane.

He is ruining

The sounds of cricket

T20 is a fraud

It clearly isnt above board

Bookies and chuckers everywhere

And Ramiz Raja’s fantastic hair

And who wouldn’t overstep for a buck

Getting caughts just bad luck

Theyve ruined

The Sound of cricket

A judge said Akrams on the take

But Amir’s return takes the cake.

The Big 3 are making money like it grows on trees

So can we have a Test Championship please?

And why on TV is KFC and gambling

sponsoring

This game pitched at children

But we still keep coming back

To hear the leather ball get whacked

From a bat made by hand

From a guy who is a cricket fan

And the smell of cut grass and old leather gloves

Is just enough

To keep us in love

with cricket
