Tippy Tappy Football

TIPPY TAPPY FOOTBALL Tippy tappy football, I hear the pundits say That's not proper football, that's not how you play Tippy tappy football, now what's that all about? Why can't they play like our lads and take the player out Tippy tappy football, it's a generation thing Six players through the middle and no one on the wing Now tippy tappy football will never quite catch on It's slow and it's lethargic and next year it’ll be gone This tippy tappy football that the Spanish want to play It's pass and move and pass and move and keep the ball all day This tippy tappy football, It’ll be the ruin of the game Why can't they shoot or make mistakes, it's really very tame Tippy tappy football, now what's the great big fuss We like blood and thunder, so it's really not for us Yet this tippy tappy football, it's on the up and up It's helped Spain win two Euros, and one Jules Rimet cup!
