1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I am not watching football
I am listening the live Radio commentaries
That is Radio Zagreb 2
outside of home
At the street
Croatia equalised at the
end of the Extra time
to shock Brazil and theirs
International Fans
I was with Radio on the street
Mobile Phone had lost the Power
at the end of the match
Desperately
I am rushing home
I had to see what I couldn t
The penalties
Without my Radio commentary
The television screen left
Oh
And then
I shouted
Hrvatska!

Notes

I rushed home from the street where I was listening Radio Zagreb 2.
I had to see what I couldn’t.
But I did.
The television left.
The mobile Phone was left without power a minute before the start of penalties shoot out.
