2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Kick it in.
Kick it out.
It’s not nice to scream and shout
those racist names in the footie games.
Rain from the skies like crying eyes.
The fact they’re different shouldn’t bother you.
You wouldn’t like it if they did it to you.
So stop it now and make life change.
Kick out the names and play the game.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Heskey’s black and Owen’s white.
Together they put up a peaceful fight.
They are all different in some kind of way.
They might be big.
They might be small.
But why does it matter if they can kick a ball.
Different coloured eyes.
Different coloured hair.
But different coloured skin is treated unfair.
If we all work together.
If we all sing and shout.
Together we can kick it out!
