Both players and watchers,
No-one knows the rules
That's what makes the game so great

Polo has the biggest pitch of any ball game
Polo has the biggest idiots
On the biggest pitch of any ball game
Polo has the biggest idiots
With the biggest bank accounts
I never liked rugby league, it must be said
Decapitated ears and concave heads
My interest held by just one thing

There'll be new events in Seoul '88
Throwing the molotov and the hundred meter loot
Hurdling over barricades putting the brick
Vaulting over riot cops in the peoples Olympics
The new games tutor was like any other teacher
Same blatant ideology they're trying to install in you
At every opportunity they'd press us to compete
Taught to butt and how to kic...
