1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Kane’s the one who’s able
When you need to turn the tables,
To pull a bunny out the hat,
Get you to the next round.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 When you’re trailing one-to-nil,
And the scoreboard clock is ticking,
He’s the man who will step up,
And that stubborn ball will stick in.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Send a nice cross over,
He will nod it goalwards,
Just when everybody thinks
We are heading homewards.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Now the score is level,
Anything can happen.
Harry Kane is wide awake,
No way is he napping.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Eighty-five mins on the clock,
Extra Time’s what beckons…
Harry’s having none of it,
Shoots, fires in a second!

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 When his country needed him,
Kane answered the call.
Final whistle, fans and players
Singing Wonderwall.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 2/7/2026
