Of course Fairy Tales can come true Daws
Have I done something wrong..8 long years..regretted being forsaken not feted..more pong than gong it appears
Charismatic Selectors mistaken..phlegmatic..enigmatic or erratic
Dramatic not pragmatic nor didactic tactic
Despite the fans throng that he does belong
After an en song bounty..one of the best county careers
Applaud PCA top award for 2024..for the way you play..stack of wickets taken and runs scored
Cheers from your peers and media Bashir sneers and jeers as runs did leak
Applause for Daws who did speak.. does seek to have another go at his peak..get a crack..give it a tweak on the track
But it did reek like Dawson's creek..thankfully his Test comeback finally draws near this week
Glad to see them abscond.. as not too fond of their.. ignore someone banging down the door approach
Which is not beyond reproach..particularly as our spin coach..Jeetan Patel.. knows full well
From his own hell..can be a hard sell…gagging for but not bagging another spell
As his Kiwi place fell to the story and glory of canny.. Danny Vettori
Jeetan beaten ..cast asunder..did ponder..had to up sticks..succumb
Rule of thumb...take his tricks from down under..go ho hum
And just strum & plunder..beat a new drum in Brum
Become one of Warwickshire’s wonder picks
So from 6 foot 3 and lanky..let's hand Siraj a hanky.. to 5 foot 8 and swanky
Liam or Lemmy…it must be said a real live wire trier and majestic domestic highflier
If not quite as mad for it.. as his namesake from Motorhead
For county fans a top shout..we should tout not flout…be in our plans
35 knows what he’s all about and his game inside out
Top draw orthodox South paw spinner and proven match winner
Dawson’s blade has many first class tons made…so willow will wield
Pearler twirlers will yield…and boy can Liam field
The cherry maybe not ragging but will without fail strengthen the now tiny shiny tail and stop it wagging
So who knew..phew..fairy tales do sometimes actually factually come true
Well it has been pants .. despite the fans bants..the rants from Hants
Liam saying what he thinks..it stinks...too old to be told you're carrying the drinks
But back in the fold..be bold go for gold then the 3 wise men Baz Bob and Ben in their men zen den.. might be sold
Won't dispute..no substitute for experience..so from sinner treated like a dogs dinner
To a vital cog…showing perhaps in the toughest scraps…that it can chaps
Be a winner for a spinner brought in from the cold to be old again
