The Cricket Club Team Captain

Today he made the vital catch that won for his team the game And tonight in the cricket club rooms he relives his moment of fame Club supporters pat him on the back and tell him he is great With a smug look upon his face his ego does inflate The cricket club's team captain in the town is well known For cockiness and arrogance with the best he holds his own He likes the sound of his own voice or so it does appear Down at the cricket club rooms him one can't help but hear He cannot help the way he is his dad too is this way Breeding does beget breeding as some are known to say Suppose most of us like recognition but some like it very much 'twould seem And suppose without his fan club he would lose all self esteem Today he made the vital catch that inspired his team to a great win And tonight his loud voice can be heard above the club room din.
