Lyrics
Tellin’ football stories
Talking about sharing anecdotes related to football.
Sharing football glories of the day we won the cup
Recalling and celebrating past victories or successes in football.
We got five-a-side and the next goal wins
Playing a small-sided game where the next goal scored ends the match.
Yes we’re playing just for pride
Playing for the sake of pride rather than a formal competition.
You love your football jerseys
Expressing affection for football jerseys.
Got your brand new boots
Having new football boots or gear.
Yes, you pass when you should shoot
Choosing to pass instead of taking a shot in the game.
I see the weather’s fine
Noticing the good weather for playing.
Let’s play some extra time and we’ll make it home for two
Suggesting to extend the game, aiming to return home by two o'clock.
And I don’t mind a little one on one or rather two on two
Openness to playing in different team formations.
I think you’ll find the more the better but really we can’t lose
Emphasizing the enjoyment of the game over the fear of losing.
Take me back to Football Sundays, football in the park
Nostalgically longing for past football Sundays spent in the park.
Mighty fine, football Sundays, playing in the dark
Appreciating the joy of playing football on Sundays, even in the evening.
Forget the injuries, forget the two left feet
Encouraging to forget past injuries or lack of skill.
I’m never playing to the beat
Not concerned with playing in rhythm or following a beat.
And there is still no score
Stating that there's still no score in the ongoing game.
You say the next goal wins and it’s raining for our sins
Commenting on the rainy weather during the game and its symbolic significance.
I love the football madness, the football sadness and all the science in between
Appreciating the emotions and complexities associated with football.
We both appreciate that there is football hate
Acknowledging the existence of rivalries or dislike in football.
Your blood is blue and mine is green
Highlighting differing allegiances to football teams (blue and green).
I don’t mind a little one on one or rather two on two
Reiteration of enjoying different team formations in the game.
I think you find the more the better but really we can’t lose
Emphasizing the joy of playing over the fear of losing, regardless of team size.
Take me back to Football Sundays, in the park
Longing to return to the joyful experience of playing football on Sundays in the park.
Mighty fine, football Sundays, playing in the dark
Appreciating the enjoyable experience of playing football even in the dark.
