Football Forever
The World Cup final's here
The crowd assembled cheer
The anthems play
On this fine day
Supporters filled with fear.
The whistle starts the game
The team so full of fame
Sven's fingers are crossed
He thinks we've lost
Each player much the same.
The final minutes run
The pitch alight with sun
It's still nil-nil
But score we will
Before the end has come.
The ball is up their end
So Beckham kicks a bend
Cole heads it in
And celebrates their win!
