It’s Hard Being a Football Mascot!

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I was there, I was there,
I was there in the mascot bear.
It was revolting, I was sweating hot
It smelt as if I was going to rot.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 I could not turn around and see
What was going on behind me,
My ears were blocked, I could only just hear
The screaming crowd that shout and cheer.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Every goal that’s scored
Makes me really bored
Of jumping up and down
It makes me dizzy all around.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 I was there, I was there,
I was there in the mascot bear.
I hated my job, I had to change,
Somethings I had to rearrange.
I became a lion, named as Rocky
And made a move into ice hockey!

Notes

I wondered what it would be like to be inside a costume on a hot day!
