Oblivious you will be of me.
Blundering around after the ball you will,
While I run down the field after your quarterback.
Everytime I get through your lines, here I come
Try and catch me if you can.
Zigzagging all the way through your lines,

Ensnare you I will. So fear me.

Running as fast as your legs will carry you. You look for the pass,
Ever so farther
Someone sees you and passes the ball your way. You jump into the air
