I'm a little bit in love with Gareth Southgate,

It's hard to explain, but here goes...

I love his natty ties, and his waistcoats,

And his long, noble, crookedy nose.

I'm a little bit in love with Gareth Southgate,

And in truth with some of his team.

I love Kane, Dele Alli and Trippier,

Maguire and his 'put the bins out' meme.

I'm a little bit in love with Gareth Southgate,

He seems like a nice, decent bloke.

He trained a team we could all be proud of,

Which doesn't happen often to us English folk.

So I'm a little bit in love, Mr Southgate,

Could I have one of your big, warm hugs?

Can you come and help us sort out Brexit,

I'll make the tea, builders' strength, in mugs.

We need more people like (Sir) Gareth Southgate,

Who can make England unite once again.

Football may not have come home this time,

But in another four years, who knows then?

I'm a little bit in love with Gareth Southgate,

This much I know to be true.

He made me care about English footie again,

So can I just say a big 'thank you!'
