The Lyrics
Ok, being from the United Kingdom, we call it football, however, I decided to include soccer in the title to avoid confusion with American football. Also, you may be wondering what theft has got to do with the sport. Say if a top player got injured, that would be a major setback. As well as this, fouling a player about to score would be worse compared to preventing a goal in a valid way (e.g. the goalkeeper saving the shot with their hands).
Slip and fall on the grass
Make a poorly judged pass
Try to score from too far left
Get injured during a knifepoint theft
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Save a shot on the wrong side
Try to score and it goes wide
Forget to tie your shoelace
Think you’re gonna win whatever the case
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Let the ball slip through your hands
Get distracted by the messages from the stands
Walk off the pitch for a snore
Foul a player who’s about to score
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Leave no players to defend
Score at completely the wrong end
Sub the best player in the team
I wonder, what does this red card mean?
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Call someone who hasn’t played all season
Punch an opponent’s face for no good reason
Run at a tough guy and get put on a stretcher
Beat up your manager for a boring lecture
Walk onto the pitch without a pair of shoes
Try any of these things if you want your team to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
So many dumb
So many dumb ways to lose
Make a poorly judged pass
Try to score from too far left
Get injured during a knifepoint theft
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Save a shot on the wrong side
Try to score and it goes wide
Forget to tie your shoelace
Think you’re gonna win whatever the case
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Let the ball slip through your hands
Get distracted by the messages from the stands
Walk off the pitch for a snore
Foul a player who’s about to score
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Leave no players to defend
Score at completely the wrong end
Sub the best player in the team
I wonder, what does this red card mean?
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Dumb ways to lose
So many dumb ways to lose
Call someone who hasn’t played all season
Punch an opponent’s face for no good reason
Run at a tough guy and get put on a stretcher
Beat up your manager for a boring lecture
Walk onto the pitch without a pair of shoes
Try any of these things if you want your team to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
The dumbest ways to lose
So many dumb
So many dumb ways to lose
