Play, don't play politics.

by Gaurav Sethi

Take some risks on the sidelines tonight
Choose a team that can deliver the fine lines tonight
Choose a team that can dodge the mine fields tonight
Open your heart surgery to the world tonight
Pick that quiet boy who’s nobody’s favourite toy
How do you know he’s no fun to play with?
When you've won so many a game with him
Why do you say he’s so much fun to play with?
When you’ve lost so many a game with him?
Kill the backroom politics
This is sport, not politics
Play, don’t play politics
Play, don’t play politics

Take some risks
A new face, from some forgotten race
Take some risks
Open your heart surgery to the world tonight
Take some risks
Look at that kid from a forgotten state
Take some risks
All he needs is a gentle push
And he will shove the world
For you
Take some risks
It’s a risk worth fighting for
It’s cricket pop!
It’s your cricket pop song

You’ll be the one who
Took some risks on the sidelines tonight
Chose a team that delivered the fine lines tonight
Chose a team that dodged the mine fields tonight
Opened your heart surgery to the world tonight
Picked that quiet boy who was nobody’s favourite toy
He was so much fun to play with
He won you a game
Because you played him, not politics.
