Inside Rules Soccer

Inside Rules Soccer by James Barrymore

Zag Zag Zoom
I’m moving like a speeding car
There’s not much space 
I can’t go far

Zig Zag Zoom
Here I dribble the mini ball
Around the table off the wall
I bounced it off my brother’s butt
I’m driving both my parents nuts

Zig Zag Zoom
My brother chased me up the stairs
I tried to hide behind a chair
Now he’s pinned me to the floor
I wait til he’s gone, then I dribble some more

My Moment of Soredom

My Moment of Soredom by James Barrymore

When I play soccer its pure perfection
I fake them out and change direction

I put the ball between his legs 
I hear my teammate yell out meg

I’m getting close to their net
The winning goal I’m sure I’ll get

My leg is back to score a goal
But I missed the ball and broke my toe
