Nil-Nil at Molineux

Verse 1

Old Gold scarf wrapped around a weary neck

Staring at the rain on Molineux

Phil sits quiet by the TV set

Wishing for a striker who could follow through

Pre-Chorus

He checks the league table every night

Then turns the lamp out to hide the sight

It is a long way down

From a mid-table town

Chorus

Oh Phil is feeling low

Watching the wanderers go

Nil-nil again

Through the freezing wind and the biting rain

Yeah he is waiting for a miracle to show

Phil is feeling low

Phil is feeling low

Verse 2

VAR stole a goal in the ninety-fifth

He kicks the bin out in the hall

Another Saturday without a lift

Just a hollow bounce from a leather ball

Pre-Chorus

He checks the league table every night

Then turns the lamp out to hide the sight

It is a long way down

From a mid-table town

Chorus

Oh Phil is feeling low

Watching the wanderers go

Nil-nil again

Through the freezing wind and the biting rain

Yeah he is waiting for a miracle to show

Phil is feeling low

Phil is feeling low

Bridge

Maybe next season

There will be a reason

To smile at the standings

Instead of these crash landings

Rough weeks

Red cheeks

Chorus

Oh Phil is feeling low

Watching the wanderers go

Nil-nil again

Through the freezing wind and the biting rain

Yeah he is waiting for a miracle to show

Phil is feeling low

Phil is feeling low

Post-Chorus

La la la

Down in the Black Country

La la la

Waiting for a victory

Phil is feeling low

Phil is feeling low
