After the Lord Mayor´s Show
This banana skin looms round the corner,
Going from a high to a low
Let´s hope A. Neil won´t be a mourner
It wouldn´t be the first time this year
That a good run is suddenly halted,
By an opponent we ought not to fear
Or one that is less than exalted
We know this league has no weak teams
Only some who´re just not quite as strong
As others, but they all have their dreams
And Burton will want to prolong...
..their life in this league number two
For more than just one single season,
And surely what ever we do
We mustn´t give them any reason...
..to believe that they can do just that
And away, the three points are needed,
Where often we do just fall flat
As lessons learned aren´t always heeded
We thought against Wigan, we´d do
One more who´re fighting for their lives,
And had to settle for two-two
After battling like frenzied fishwives
So this won´t be an easy day
Especially after our midweeker,
Burton didn´t have one to play
Which might leave them keener and sleeker
But donning my positive peaked cap
Despite injuries building up,
Remembering the Wigan mishap
Three points ought to fill up our cup.
