The Decemberists

The Decemberists - The Sporting Life songtekst

Je score:

I fell on the playing field 

The work of an errant heel 

The din of the crowd and the loud commotion 

Went deafening silence and stopped emotion 

The season was almost done 

We managed it 12 to 1 

So far I had known no humiliation 

In front of my friends and close relations 



There's my father looking on 

And there's my girlfriend arm in arm 

With the captain of the other team 

And all of this is clear to me 

They condescend and fix on me a frown 

How they love the sporting life 



And father had had such hopes 

For a son who would take the ropes 

And fulfill all his old athletic aspirations 

But apparently now there's some complications 

But while I am lying here 

Trying to fight the tears 

I'll prove to the crowd that I come out stronger 

Though I think I might lie here a little longer 



There's my coach he's looking down 

The disappointment in his knitted brow 

I should've known 

He thinks again 

I never should have put him in 

He turns and loads the lemonade away 

And breathes in deep 

The sporting life 

The sporting life 

The sporting life 

How he loves... 



There's my father looking on 

And there's my girlfriend arm in arm 

With the captain of the other team 

And all of this is clear to me 

They condescend and fix on me a frown 

How they love the sporting life
