The Cricket Match

The men grab up their flat-sided bats
its almost time to play
I am going to go see a cricket match today.
I see the men all take the field and the batter go up to the plate
Just hoping to hit the ball and not get a wicket as of late.
The pitcher throws the ball
he hits it with such force
that the sheer power of the cricket ball is enough to kill a horse.
He runs the bases back and forth
seeming without end
until the pitcher gets the ball and he has to hit again.
The man has got himself 20 runs and thats not bad you see
Thus the life of a cricket player will never be for me.
The first day ends and the score is now 230-173
A cricket player's life is not for me.
Just get up the next day and prepare to take the field
The other team's up to bat, the hitter just won't yield.
The batter just hits the ball running from base to base
Until the hope to get a wicket seems very much out of place.
The hitter starts to act very crass,
"you can't stop me, you stupid stupid ass!"
But the pitcher hurls one final ball
It creeps up to the plate
But the batter takes his swing one second too late.
The ball hits the wicket, The post is knocked off
The inning is now over, some room to breathe, or cough.
This continues for another day or some
You see how cricket players like to have fun.
And next time the score is 831-3,
you'll see that cricket playing will never be for me.
