Our Game (English Football)
The Barclays
Why do we love this game?
Sweaty men kicking a ball while rising to fame,
Looking for an opening so the score won’t stay the same,
Just to win a silver cup, at first it sounds lame,
But we don’t hear it, we watch it,
thrills and spills, before the glory,
glory glory united, or we clap rapidly and chant chelsea,
Sky blue is the color, as we clear the room for man city,
Arsenal striving, we also await the merseyside derby,
It’s not just winning, some avoid losing,
Relegation is scary, as we pray for Cardiff city,
Giants in the game as we fear palace and stoke city,
We go as far as wales, just to watch Swansea city,
Even in london, the cavern roars as fulham play,
Tottenham, west ham, even sunderland as we crave,
Every game is important, Hull city vs Villa,
West brom vs Newcastle, still a thriller,
The canaries sing, as Hampton scores a killer,
It’s the game we love, and the league we live for,
The stadiums roar, even our televisions erupt,
A game that unites individuals for arguments and celebrations,
It’s English football, and it’s our game.
