Good people, I missed my introduction
But please, please, I pray you, hear it now
For I would lay rest the grace in my tongue
And speak plainly
Days like these are far too rare
To cheapen with heavy handed words
And so I'm afraid without any ado whatsoever
Here he is, one of your own
Born a stone's throw from this very stadium
And here before you now
The son of John Thatcher, Sir William Thatcher
