Nobody Like You
The Busters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

usually we sit, when we're watching it
abruptly we jump up, and scream
we know the latest kicks, we know the latest tricks
it's so easy to score a nasty goal

football we adore you
there's ain't nobody like you
and football we really hate you
right from the heart we do

if you don't care, sit down and shut up
we're tryin' to win the cup

football, football, football is taking over
football, football, football rocks all over

the strategy is clear, we just need some more beer
a penalty kick, or a helping hand
the referee is paid, opponent players straight
if we don't do it by ourselves we'll never win

football we adore you
there's ain't nobody like you
and football we really hate you
right from the heart we do

if we were coach, we'd crank our players up
cause champions win the cup

lalalalalala lalalalalala lalalalalala lalala 4x

and if we don't win, our world will be messed up
please take us to the pub...

football, football, football is taking over
football, football, football rocks all over
football, football, football is taking over
football, football, football rocks all over





football...
