Tennis Nemesis - 林子祥

Tennis Nemesis - 林子祥
Playing the forehand
You're missing the ball
And you feel that your timing is off
And you scoff at the umpire who's calling the line
Yes he's blind
But be kind
It's not time when you're trailing behind
Bend those old knees you'll be catching the breeze as the man
At the net takes a crack at your head
Now you're down 45 and there's no time to cry
You say "Wait" They say "Why"
And here's mud in your eye
Adding insult to your third double fault
They all said that the net was too low
Your lobs are too short
And your strings are too taut
And your age is beginning to show
Don't feel defeated
You're only un-seeded
You just can't believe it
Oh ain't we conceited
So put on your Adidas and make like you're Vilas
Just having competed is all that it is
Navratilova Helena Sukova
Ivan Miloslav Yannick Noah
Chrissie and Steffi and Miss Sabatini
Becker and Borg McEnroe
Tennis is fun when you don't have to run
When the scoring is none and you don't care who won
So get off your buns and get out in the sun
We can go one on one till the morning is done
