[Verse 1]
Boots on the grass
Crowd in the stand
Flag in the fist
Dirt on the hand
Thirty-two dreams
All on the line
One clean touch
And the whole world shines
Steel in the lungs
Fire in the chest
Run like a storm
Take the best
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that roar?
It’s calling me now
One more break
And we take the crown
[Chorus]
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
Kick that fear away
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
One shot, one team
Make the whole place shake
[Verse 2]
First touch cold
Then the lane opens wide
Back heel flash
No room to hide
Mud on the socks
Sweat in the eyes
Dive for the ball
Never ask why
From the first whistle
To the final scream
We chase that gold
Like a fever dream
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that roar?
It’s calling me now
One more break
And we take the crown
[Chorus]
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
Kick that fear away
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
One shot, one team
Make the whole place shake
[Bridge]
[Half-time break]
When the match gets rough
And the legs feel low
We bite down hard
Still we go, go, go
No crown for the lazy
No room for the fraud
We play for the badge
We play for the squad
[Final Chorus]
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
Kick that fear away
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
One shot, one team
Make the whole place shake
World Cup, run it up
World Cup, run it up
Hear the whole world sing
World Cup, run it up
