British champion for fifty years   Easily beats all his challengers   Bored of always being the best   He'd rather be like all the rest   Miscuing shots and fluffing smashes   Missing the table and losing matches   Now with pressure from above   He was forced to carry on   "you're the best, don't you want to win? "   To which he replied with a cheeky grin   "i'm bored of always being the best   I'd rather be like all the rest!"   Desmond rebelled, now he plays for fun   He loses a game now and then   He enjoys it, though, playing for pleasure   Without the competition, without the pressure   Miscuing shots and fluffing smashes   Missing the table and losing matches
