1436 - Aldershot shot by Watford

It’s ten to two in the morning; we’ve been
To Aldershot and back this afternoon
And evening, for a football game between
Aldershot and Watford. The Yellows soon
Beat the Reds, but this military town
Did not let itself down; they banged the drums
And chanted happily, though 3-0 down
Fathers enjoyed the evening with their sons
A few young lads brought along their girlfriends
We leaned on a barrier, out of the rain
There were no seats in this part of the ground
Luckily, by the time the end had come
The rain had stopped. Even Burger King seemed
Inviting, but no time to hang around
