So farewell then, Commonwealth Games
You are named for a strange idea
And you are a strange mix of sport
And places too
We didn’t originally want you
But you came
And we didn’t build the houses we promised
But the stadium looked nice
You’ve made Smithfield be the name of a place
Which was unexpected
You gave us back a monkey
But he’s bigger now and
Thank you for the other statue
You were OK
No bull
