LYRICS:

It's more than goals

It's more than goals

We know that football's more than goals

​

It's more than goals

It's more than goals

We know that football's more than goals

​

Way back in 1863

We decided to agree

Rules of play,

The FA

​

And as all the years went by

Even more rules applied

Like how I was offside

And I was goalie!

​

Teams got fancy shirts

Different for the keepers

Play on grass or dirt

Rules to stop the cheaters

​

So many blokes, so many jeers

Before so many years

Women's teams

Got the cheers

​

'Cos when they saw us

Passing the ball, scoring 43 goals

Boy, could we play football

Until they banned us!

​

I was thinking hard

About rules while stuck in traffic

Red and yellow cards

Made reffing more dramatic

​

In 1971

FA's rules were withdrawn

Meant that we could play on

The women's game reborn!

​

It's more than goals

We know that football's more than goals

​

It's more than goals...

​

Wherever you roam

Whoever you cheer for

Football feels like home

(Not sure what I'm here for)

​

Playground or World Cup

When your team is winning

There's no better buzz

Than when your fans are singing
