As a tempest brewed and battered historic Vienna
The Swiss enjoyed the battle of Ravenna
Boral struck the rebound past the ever so hapless Lehmann
As Deutschland banished Jens to far away Khazakhstan
Pandemonium broke out as Istanbul turned up the heat
Germans devoid of ideas even Ballack looked deadbeat
As the experts wrote them off the travelling fans began to whine
Dealt swiftly with a deft flick from the industrious Schwein
Germany in freefall Low’s instructions were to the letter
With the return of Torsten, Frings had to get better
And so it did with klose heading past the great Rustu
The glorious reds got ready to bid a final adieu
No cold turkey as the comeback kings hit again with Senturk
Football rejoiced in unison and Dalston went berserk
In the end the comeback kings were very much outcombacked
A whisker short of custom late glory they just failed to enact
With one killer foray Lahmchop advanced like a hydraulic ram
In the distance all could be heard was the silence of the Lahm
Number 7
