Useless - What's The Score?

​

'Useless - What's the score?

Useless, useless - What's the score?'

is usually a chant heard

at football matches

by the followers of the more successful team.

I sang it to my opponent

when I was 1-0 up at table football.

​

I had never met him before.

He was bigger than me.

More sensitive than me,

More violent than me!

He threatened to hit me.

I agreed he should.

(To get it over with.)

​

He did.

​

It hurt. He messed up my face.

Dazed. I continued the game.

I beat him 10-0.

He agreed he was useless,

and apologised for acting in haste.
