Foot Fan Station

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 If you’re looking for some football merchandise,
I suggest you take a plane or train to Nice.
In Rue Defly there is a little shop –
With any luck you’ll find they have in stock
The scarf or shirt or hat you’re searching for.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 If you, like me, speak French, well, that’s a plus,
But if you don’t, it really doesn’t matter.
The owners of the store are very nice,
You’ll manage in some way to have a natter.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Somehow the conversation will ignite,
‘Cos football is a language that unites!
