USA - United World of America

[Intro instrumental, clean guitar, porch night, slow groove] Why the clock don’t stop? [Verse 1 sung, relaxed] That field’s too big for a Sunday night No ads to cut, no crowd to fight Meters now, since when? Guess I missed that part back then [Instrumental break: slide guitar, loose blues groove] [Verse 2 spoken, amused] Is he American? Looks Japanese That one’s a damn Viking Where you think he’s from? [Instrumental break: New Orleans feel, syncopated groove] [Bridge spoken, short pause] Man… Looks like United World of America [Instrumental break: spacious, sustained guitar notes] [Verse 3 spoken] I ask my kid what’s this on TV He says... "You know it as soccer, But this is the real football" [Instrumental break: build, repeating guitar motif] [Break sung, understated] Ball’s round though Yeah... round’s fair Didn’t plan to care Still, here I am [Instrumental break: tension build, steady rhythm] [Final shouted] GOOOOOL! GOOOOOL! [Spoken laughing] Didn’t see that coming [Outro instrumental, back to porch, slow fade] My kid says... "Told you" [Instrumental break: New Orleans feel, syncopated groove] [Instrumental break: spacious, sustained guitar notes] [Instrumental break: build, repeating guitar motif]
