SOCCER

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The green field presents the battle
With each side’s troops of eleven
Soon as we heard the ref’s whistle
The rumble starts and we’re driven

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 A thrill atmosphere to surround
In every tackle, shoot and pass
Until the single purpose found
To bring the cheer among the mass

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 There are goals for singled fame
You never know what will come hence
There’ll be fouls along the game
Then card brandished as consequence

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Until the final whistle blown
And the choir stop to sing
The final result will be known
Then joy & gloom each team shall bring

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 To feel the world is at your feet
Within each goal and every shout
Soccer for all nations to meet
That’s what the game is all about

Notes

The ancient war never ended… Soccer is the game that took the place for it, peacefully!
