Billy died on a beach,
When the sky was full of sun.
Jumpers for goal posts and sand for grass,
A crowd of none.
Billy crossed over too many lines,
But not this far over.
The girls are not the same here.
Billy spent all his time in the pubs,
Where he drank too much.
Billy liked being out on his own,
But not the only one.
Keeping goal always set him apart,
But not this apart.
The lanes are not so wide here.
Billy died on a beach,
When the sky was full of sun.
Out of the clear blue sky,
An ending over long.
Jumpers for goal posts and sand for grass,
A crowd of none.
