Chumbawamba - Desmond Lynam's Sports Trivia lyrics

From the heights of montezuma to the shores of sicily From the rainplains of africa Across the shining sea From the east to the west From the rainforests to the dustbowls It's bigger than jesus Bigger than rock & roll What is it? Sport! You can love it or loathe it But you can't get away from it It's played, watched, and talked about all over the world From the backstreets of naples To the docklands of hull It's bigger than jesus Bigger than rock & roll What is it? Sport! Livingstone and stanley were sitting in a hut In the african jungle, talking and stuff About how they'd discovered this big continent How they'd dared to go where no-one else went When out of the bush came this skinny little kid And what was he wearing? a liverpool strip! He had an nfl helmet and some brand new cricket boots A packet of questions from trivial pursuit Q: what happened when rugby union minnows shirley wanderers went to twickenham? A: they stole a set of goal posts after an international!
