Goalhanger lyrics

Artist  : Billy Bragg 
Song : Goalhanger



 Send "Goalhanger" Ringtone to your Cell 

 He's got the bonhomie of a game show host
And his handshake is so limp it's like meeting a
ghost
His apologies are tired cos he uses them a lot
His excuses are so lame if they were horses
they'd be shot
He lies through his teeth with impeccable grammar
In the game of life he's just a dreadful
goalhanger
Keeping all his options open till the very last
minute
Checking every situation trying to work out
what's in it
Trying to pin him down is like nailing water to a
wall
He's incapable of making a commitment at all
Like trying in a nail with an inflatable hammer
In the game of life he's just a dreadful
goalhanger
Yesterday upon the stair I met a man who's never
there
He won't be there again today
Well, that's what he told me to say
He's got the natural arrogance of an exclamation
mark
And he wishes his bite was as big as his bark
He's appealing to the referee at every single
stage
He's a fuzzy little bundle of impotent rage
And where he ought to have patience, he only has
anger
In the game of life he's just a dreadful
goalhanger
He has a lack of humility defies imagination
And he hangs round like a fart in a Russian space
station
He doesn't even notice as he sells you down the
river
Cos he's one of life's takers and he's looking
for a giver
He smirks and shrugs his shoulders as he drops
another clanger
In the game of life he's just a dreadful
goalhanger
