1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 See the home support exploding
As emotions are unloading
Thunderbolts or two yard toe-ins
Will top all excitement polls
‘Cause there’s nothing like a
GOAL!

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 You’ll forgive all of those misses
Rediscover what true bliss is
All around you hugs and kisses
Now your team is on a roll
‘Cause there’s nothing like a
GOAL!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Till that point the game was boring
With the commentator snoring
Now as one the crowd is roaring
Dig that sound in both ear holes
‘Cause there’s nothing like a
GOAL!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 More dazzling than the brightest light
More thrilling than a fast motorbike
More pulsating than a rocket in flight
More satisfying than a gigantic bite
From the biggest juiciest burger
Shout it so the whole world’s heard ya?
‘Cause there’s nothing like a
GOAL!

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 It’s a striker’s greatest pleasure
It’s what football fans most treasure
Watch the replay at your leisure
Then watch it again
And again
And again
And again
To lift your heart
Soothe your pain
And electrify your soul
‘Cause there’s nothing like a
GOAL!

Notes

I wrote this one especially for my `gig’ at Barking & Dagenham FC and read it out in the middle of the pitch before they kicked off against Bury earlier this season.
