Pelé Pelé Songtext
von Lorkin O'Reilly

My body′s getting older
My belly is growing
But I like to lie in the bath at night
Watching old football highlights

Pelé had a silver touch
And he runs like a Lion
But it's Salah for me the Egyptian king
The underdog champion of the East


And I like to lay there
And hear the accents
And I like to remember when I was a kid
Going down to Dublin for the weekend

To see my Grandad
And watch TV
The Simpsons at six and The Weakest Link
Then football in the kitchen by the evening

And he liked to drink
And he liked to tell stories
Of Cromwell and the British and old Nazi history
Late into the evening in the kitchen


My body′s getting older
My belly is growing
But I like to lie in the bath at night
Watching old football highlights
