Song for Len Shackleton

The Clown Prince of English football in a time when the England team selectors refused to pick someone so downright uppity to represent his country. When asked why Len was consistently left out of the team, one selector replied, “Because we play at Wembley Stadium, not London Palladium.”
I'm not the kind of man
Who'd live a quieter life
Just for a minute's silence:
( )
Some say it all without a word
Silence can be mightier than the sword
They took the 2,3,5
They turned it upside down
Why run away to the circus
When the world is full of clowns?
