世界杯期间女性永葆美丽的要诀
My fellow trainer, Sylvia Guinan, made me aware of these rules that a husband has laid out for his wife to follow during the 2014 World Cup.
我的同事Sylvia Guinan让我意识到,热爱足球的丈夫应该告诉他的妻子在2014世界杯期间需要注意的一些事情。
I think it’s a perfect continuation of my last post of being a football widow and I simply had to share the rules here. I LOVE rule no.6.
我认为这篇文章是上篇文章“成为一个足球寡妇”的完美续篇,在这篇文章里面我分享了八大规则,其中我觉得第六条最重要。
My Dear Wife

In the meantime, here’s a fun song that’s been written by one of my readers, Libby Russell that all football widows will identify with. Enjoy! Thank you for sharing, Libby. It’s brilliant!
与此同时,有一首非常有意思的歌曲来自我们的读者Libby Russell,是她为所有世界杯期间的足球寡妇所作。非常感谢Libby的分享,太棒了!
Libby has posted the lyrics on her YouTube channel in the comments section, but here they are for you. There are plenty of lovely English expressions and British English slang that I’ve highlighted in bold for you. Can you guess the meaning? What does “OMG” stand for?
Libby把这首歌放在了YouTube频道的评论部分,我把它摘过来了。我将大量的可爱的表述和英式的俚语都用不同颜色区分开了。你能猜出其中的意思吗?“OMG”表带什么意思?
Lyrics
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise th blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
I just can’t bear the awful moods
Oh please help me
Make it stay away
No good, I’m afraid
Here comes the day
Out come the beers
And plenty of sneers
And all his mates
Well they get in such a state
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
C me on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
It will be all over the news!
It’s small, it’s round
And it seems to send
All our men
Around the bend
Help me, help me
He’s turned into a beast
Shouting, swearing
As he devours a feast
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes!
Us poor women
Truly suffer
As he turns into
That old duffer
So I will be cheering
On our lads
Purely so my life
Won’t be quite so bad!
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
We’ll be in an awful mood…. If you do!
