[Verse 1]
MC Grammar receives the ball just on the halfway line
He passes
She passes back
And he's through
It's just him and keeper now
Surely this is it?
He aims
He shoots
And he scores!
[Verse 2]
She passes
He shoots
The crowd roars
Will they score?
[Verse 3]
A sick flick
Free kick
She steps up
They win!
[Verse 4]
It's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it with me, sing it with me)
[Verse 5]
The biggest sport in the world
With fans all over the globe
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it loud, sing it loud)
[Verse 6]
Yeah, it's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing! Sing it with me now)
[Verse 7]
They won't ever give up
Until their team wins the cup
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing! Sing! Sing it)
[Verse 8]
Once upon a time back in 1863
The FA started governing football officially
And they codified the rules, pulled together regionally
Teams in a competition to play competitively
[Verse 9]
Then in 1872, the referee's whistle blew
For the first FA Cup Final at The Oval (True!)
Fast-forward to this century and incredibly
The sport is now a juggernaut, and a remedy for many
See, we worship all these superstars
Purchasing our favourite shirts
Name and numbers on the back
Like we are professionals
Four billion people with the same reason
Glued to their televisions all season
Watching 11 vs 11
Going to head-to-head to represent their club and their colours
So no other teams above 'em
While their fans are in the stands with their banners and their chants
Wishing and hoping this is their chance for them to bring it home
And parade it in the streets, all together, celebrating
The greatest in the nation: a footballing sensation
See, this right here's the moment
You've been chosen, can you handle it?
There's one final match between you and the championship!
[Verse 10]
It's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it with me, sing it with me)
[Verse 11]
The biggest sport in the world
With fans all over the globe
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it loud, sing it loud)
[Verse 12]
Yeah, it's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing! Sing it with me now)
[Verse 13]
They won't ever give up
Until their team wins the cup
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing! Sing! Sing it)
[Verse 14]
Let me take you to the first World Cup in 1930
Where the hosts were Uruguay and they were also worthy winners
4-2 against Argentina
And every four years, bar the wars, we have seen another thirty-two
Going through to the groups
Then the sixteen, the quarters, the semis, then down to two
And for two to become one, you don't choose a champion
You go to battle with tackles to rattle them and dazzle them
[Verse 15]
To put two hands on the trophy
Then kiss it slowly
Wait for the woooaaahhhhhhh!, then lose it totally!
'Cause if you've got the tekkers
To skip past these defenders
And the tiki tika
You will always be remembered
[Verse 16]
Oi, that's foul, ref!
Yep, it's a penalty
The red was card was harsh
But this moment could mean everything
I step up
Head up
Keeper's there ahead of me
Right now he's my enemy
But I'm full of adrenaline
The whistle blows
Here I go
Keeper dives bottom right
Good try
Gave him in eyes
The goal is mine
Time to shine
Cheeky chip
Frozen time
It hits the net
The crowd goes wild! (They think it's all over. It is now!)
[Verse 17]
It's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it with me, sing it with me)
[Verse 18]
The biggest sport in the world
With fans all over the globe
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing it loud, sing it loud)
[Verse 19]
Yeah, it's the beautiful game
That the world loves to play
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing!)
[Verse 20]
They won't ever give up
Until their team wins the cup
What's it called?
Football! Football! Football! (Sing! Sing! Sing it)
