Football RULES OK

Knocking over tables
Knocking over stalls
Riot in the classroom
Breaking all the rules

Out onto the playing field
Ref’s not there on time
Shirts v skins – we start the game
‘Pass it up the line!’

Pushing and a shoving
Kicking from behind
First it doesn’t matter
No-one seems to mind

Fouls are getting harder
Kickings in the knee
No off-sides, no throw-ins
Total anarchy!

At last the referee arrives
His whistle speaks fair play
The game turns round – it’s fun at last
Cos football RULES OK!!
