The game is called soccer
Aka the Beautiful Game
The most popular in the world
Brings a billion people together

Waking up at four in the morning
Driving two hours in a packed van
Playing in the poring rain
Coming home to homework

All of these features
Are just part of the game
You have to love the sport
If you want to be great

Now a day’s soccer can be played with a remote
And the human interaction is decreasing
Instead of getting together at the field
You can get on Play Station Network®

But if you want to be good, you need to
Play with passion
Play with aggression
Play with heart
