It’s a goal!

Holes in my socksEnd of season sale shortsA third choice shirtOf several years pastIt’s a bit of a mish-mashBut it’s only for funI’m still playing footballWhile I can still runThere’s no better gameI still pretend to be Andy ColeWhen I make some spaceAnd score one more goalIt might be my last everWho knows what fate… 

Holes in my socks
End of season sale shorts
A third choice shirt
Of several years past

It's a bit of a mish-mash
But it's only for fun
I'm still playing football
While I can still run

There's no better game
I still pretend to be Andy Cole
When I make some space
And score one more goal

It might be my last ever
Who knows what fate awaits
But I'll probably kick a football
Through heaven's Pearly Gates
