Deze persiflage op tennisspeler John McEnroe, die (in de tijd dat er nog geen computeranalyse was) protesten maakte naar lijn- en scheidsrechters, werd door Roger Kitter gemaakt (beter bekend als Captain Alberto Bertorelli uit de tv-comedyserie ‘Allo ‘Allo!).

Songtekst

Oh I say, well played sir
Fifteen love
Oh my goodness me, what a shot
Thirty love
Who could possibly return that backhand?
Thirty fifteen
These two boys really mean business today
Forty - fifteen
Out
Out
What!
Out
WHAT!
The ball is out

You gotta be kidding

The ball is in; everyone could see that the ball is in
Chalk dust everyone could see that there was chalk dust

That ball was in by about a mile
You people here goddamn senile

Don't be noisy, there's a good chap
You'll wake the linesman, she is having a nap.

Screwball
Call yourself an umpire
You're a screwball

Play on
You're being rather naughty
Kindly play on

I won't play on till you change you're call
you didn't even see the (beep beep) ball
I come over here to play a (beep beep) game
But you're blind geriatric to .. team

The ball's in, everyone could see that the ball's in
Chalk dust, everyone could see that there was chalk dust

I am awfully sorry but the ball was out
I'd be jolly greatfull if you didn't shout
If you don't like it here, well, you shouldn't come
Frankly, sir, you're a pain in the bum

Moron, I want another umpire
You're a moron
Chalk dust, I wanna see my lawyer
There was chalk dust

You pick on me 'cause of who I am
I am not playing on and I don't give a damn
The ball wasn't out it is a goddamn lie
I won't play on and I think I'm gonna cry

Chalk dust, I wanna see my daddy
There was chalk dust

Boring, I'm gonna have to shoot you now
You're boring
I'm sorry about this you odious little brat
I'm sick of you
The umpire strikes back

Oh, you're the pits
You're scum, man
You're not fit to be called a human being

I was talking to myself

Uh.
