Every country in the world has a football team
With matches at home and away
That's how it is if you're a national squad
You travel and you play
But if you play for Palestine
You never can be sure
If you can make it out of your house
And into the one next door

If you can make it out of your house
And into the next one down
Then you still never know
If you can make it out of town
If you can make it past the checkpoints
If you can make it past the wall
If you might possibly be able to fly
To another port of call

But the ball is round
And you never know
Which way it's gonna go

Most professional football players
Needn't have to think
If I go to training today
Will I end up in the clink
If I go to training
Will I be surrounded by barbed wire
Will I find a football pitch
Encircled, under fire

But the ball is round
And you never know
Which way it's gonna go

It's just a little country
Maybe not a significant team
Ranked among the world
Not more than one-hundred-thirteen
But the very fact of their existence
Is a vision to behold
And the future is unwritten
I'm told

But the ball is round
And you never know
Which way it's gonna go
