The Lyrics

This thing looked like a brown bag with a white zipper on top
It wasn't really round, you'd play catch with it nonstop
Ever since I was a young boy I played that pigskin ball
'til I was a high school grad, I used to play football

You kick them and you throw them, you can go for a touchdown
Don't get sacked when your opponents just start to surround
The digit counters incline, and they could never fall
You've scored a lot of touchdowns in the game of football

You're a football hero, since I've known you more
A football hero can settle his supple score
I'd frankly care about it (I do know)
I must use my textbook

Sometimes there are distractions, lots of buzzes and bells
Players on the field, below heaven, above hell
There have been instant replays to recap a recurring fall
Thanks to the games of American football

Well, you have been the rowdy pigskin king
Don't have to hand your football crown to them

Even on your favourite fields, you've been doing your best
Your discipline leans in and topples all the rest
You have skilled runs and tackles, you were never seen fall
Some guy that I know of who's still acing at football

You are getting better at this, believe it or not. True, you could have used more humor, and you missed a line, and the pacing got more slaggard as it progressed. But it had so much going for it in the first two verses and the chorus. Keep it up, chum!
