Greatest team with Zico
To never lift the world cups weight

Always cracking a dreamer
An all time Seleçao great

Whipping the USSR
Graceful playmaker’s foot drill

Till the last kick at the Azteca
In the green and gold of Brazil

Master of the beautiful game 
Willowy like a subtle breeze

We bid a solemn goodbye
To the good Doctor Socrates
