Blame It On The World Cup

I don’t know why the world has gone crazy

With everyone seemingly caught in a frenzy

The fever is really contagious

Few are spared of its ravages.

 

Productivity takes a nosedive

As workers stay up late to watch it live

Harrowing stories of suicide

Of people losing big betting on the wrong side.

 

Sex takes a back seat

As husbands suffer from a feverish heat

The night is filled with maniacal screams

As fans root for their teams.

 

Twenty two men fight over a solitary ball

When they themselves have forty four balls all in all

The world has really gone bonkers

Blame it on the World Cup Soccer.
