I Never Play Basketball Now Songtext / Lyric

I'm not looking to disturb you,

just a little to unnerve you.

i have nothing about games

and always looking back.

after the last unholy row

i never, ever play basketball now.

it joins a list of things i'll miss

like fencing foils and lovely girls

i'll never kiss.

Leave it behind on an overcrowded desk

where the in-tray is higher

than the out ever will be.

before the tea rooms fill

with flirting couples call.

remember to call.

and flow, it skips like a river

and it rolls flow,

you'll swear it's a chapel

isn't that so?

think of all the things that grew here,

long before we moved here

all of it good and strong,

and all of it gone.

After that last unholy row

i never, ever play, basketball now

it joins the list of things i'll miss

like fencing foils, and lovely girls

i'll never kiss.

you may say i've got plenty,

but no one knows how long

things stay big roger d.
