lyrics

I've got a little notion
It's a sentient ideal
And a deluge of devotion
When your deities are real

I've got a little notion
It's a buzzing in my ear
The seasons are in motion
It's a football time of year

Lace the guernsey, we're victory bound!
Heavens on earth, its the old home ground!

Thats when I feel a football emotion
Hit me from inside
A football emotion
Let the drop punt be your guide

I found my own solution
To my existential fear
When I came to the conclusion
That the planets not a sphere

I've got a little notion
It's a roaring everywhere
The seasons are in motion
And the footballs in the air

Lace the guernsey, we're victory bound!
Heavens on earth, its the old home ground!

And then I feel a football emotion
Hit me from inside
A football emotion
Let the drop punt be your guide

So the boundary bends
And within its wings
Fleeting realms transpire
As I work the ends
And the sherrin sings
"Up, Cazaly, Higher!"

And then I feel a football emotion
Hit me from inside
A football emotion
Let the drop punt be your guide

And then I see a football in motion
Flying through the posts
A football emotion
For the living and the ghosts

And then I feel a football emotion
And I'm screaming for the side
A transcendental football emotion
Couldn't stop it if I tried
