Painted the wood in Autumn gold under sky so real and blue
But you’ll remember won’t you ‘mate’ there’s greater one than you.
The college dons with literary degrees have praised the poems you’ve wrote
And since you’ve won the literary prize you’ve become a famous poet
And people say how great you are and your type are so rare
But you’ll remember won’t you mate there’s one better somewhere.
You are the football super star of your homeland the pride
And since your great goals in the world cup you are known world wide
It’s been said your ego it has grown perhaps you ought be made aware
That you are not the world’s best there is one greater player.
To find your very equal one might have to travel far
But there’s always one greater than you though great indeed you are
And it’s a great leveller to think there’s one greater than i
But one day i may be the best if i give it my best try.
