              I Don't Work For The BBC (yet!)

Please don't do a deal with Sky
Or even with ITV,
Nor even with the 'good folk' at NTL,
Please deal with the BBC.

Please don't do a deal with Sky
Please think of the fans (like me!)
Don't think of the money, just think of the game.
(Is the game your concern?  It should be!)

Please don't do a deal with Sky
(No-one hates Andy Gray more than me!)
As they have loads of adverts (and stupid stats too!)
And a front-man who's naff as can be.

Please don't do a deal with Sky,
(They've been bad for the game, you see!)
They're just out for themselves and they'll bleed the game dry,
Please deal with the BBC.....
