Let us have a game of billiards The board is in readiness Rattle the balls on the platform Set your aim to the side With the point of the cue To get the ball at the crevices Your king is the prize in the hand Place your cue perfectly That the English will spin perfectly That is my way of playing Every ball mixes on the board O that dog without a collar He is being dragged along I'll say you have no chance You are just a counterfeit |
