The goal is my territory!
And you stepping nowhere near the 18-yard box!

You dream is to score goals against me
Wish that dream goodbye

Are you trying?
Not really, I’m just too good for you
I would consider sitting on the bench

I’m not scared. I’m a goalie

The last line of defence to be passed

If you don’t succeed,
Well, to be honest, well that's because I'm a brick wall standing in your way
