What Makes The Beautiful Game So Beautiful

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Some people concentrate on passes
Accurate and complete
While others feel the important skill
Is controlling with one’s feet

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Experts claim that stamina
makes a perfect sportsman
But in my own humble view
Good looks are Number One

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Ronaldo may score goals for fun
But what about his face?
He’d scare the living daylights out of
Anyone, in any place

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Then there is Diego Forlan
Who made the Scousers cry
He may not score as many goals
But he’s easy on the eye!

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Watching Brazil in a World Cup game
Is boring I must say
Since none of them are good looking
Who cares if they can play?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 The perfect football match for me
Is Italy versus Spain
The men on the pitch keep me intrigued
Without a goal all game

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Who needs a goal when you can see
Vieri and Buffon
Watch Del Piero kick the ball
And Raul make a run

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 View Iker Casillas make a save
And Nesta fix his hair
Francesco Totti taking shots
That other wouldn’t dare

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 So Ronaldinho scored THAT goal
And Zidane has skills, I see
But I don’t care about all of that
Coz looks come tops for me!

Notes

I think the poem says it all.

p.s. i just fixed a spelling mistake from the first one i sent. this one is the fixed version.
