Das Ingtons - Dear Donnay Lyrics

They spoke to me when I was up and coming
You said I was a tennis prodigy
You promised I would be
Joining on the team, with Bjorn Borg and Andre Agassi

But now I'm tearing up this paper contract
It's something I no longer can renew
It isn't hard to tell, it's been a living hell
I should be moving on to pastures new

Dear Donnay
I'm sorry
But it's time for me to go
Dear Donnay
Don't worry
You'll find another pro

I won't miss this sponsorship, and I'm glad it's gonna stop
It's never been a pleasure but thank you for the socks

Dear Donnay

I wish that I had studied all the small print
They made me dress in Donnay from head to toe
People laugh at me. It's just embarrassing
I've been disowned by everyone I know

Today, I hope to find another sponsor
So far, it's not going how I planned
Reebok won't write back, and Slazenger just laughed
They said my image doesn't fit their brand

So I'm wallowing in debt
Because you never sent me cheques
I guess that's why I'm feeling so depressed
My life is in a mess, well what did you expect?
When you sell the company to Sports Direct

Dear Donnay
I'm sorry
But it's time for me to go
Dear Donnay
Don't worry
You'll find another pro

Dear Donnay
I'm sorry
But it's time for me to go
Dear Donnay
Don't worry
You'll find another pro

And no-one makes umbrellas quite as well as you make yours
But I've got over 50 now so please don't send any more
I won't miss this sponsorship, and I'm glad it's going to stop
I hate to say it's over, but thank you for the socks
