Red hair, pale face
Tying up the boot lace
Puma Kings, the best around.

Big hits, tough blocks
Azzuri gloves, shorts and socks
His marker is, twice his age


And they say he's on the Junior B team
Living out his life dream

Been this way since Under 16
And these days
His classmates are filled with envy

When they hear his stories
Of glory
And how old men try and cripple him


Now he's up in the half forward line
Winning breaking ball all the time

Kicking scores just for fun
He wants everyone to notice him
Spends every night in the gym

Wants everyone to come see
Him play Junior B
Him play Junior B


Small crowd of old men
Shouting abuse, time and again

Still he's just a kid
Doesn't hurt him, anymore
Been there and heard it all before

Bitter men, who no longer play

And they say he's on the Junior B team

Living out his life dream
Been this way since Under 16
And these days

His classmates are filled with envy
When they hear his stories
Of glory

And how old men try and cripple him

Now he's up in the half forward line

Winning breaking ball all the time
Kicking scores just for fun
He wants everyone to notice him

Spends every night in the gym
Wants everyone to come see
Him play Junior B

Him play Junior B

Taped knees, shielded gums

Broken fingers and thumbs
All part of the fun
Big games, Parish pride

Nowhere on the pitch to hide
Now the kid becomes a man


And they say he's on the Junior B team
Living out his life dream
Been this way since Under 16

And these days
His classmates are filled with envy
When they hear his stories

Of glory
And how old men try and cripple him


Now he's up in the half forward line
Winning breaking ball all the time
Kicking scores just for fun

He wants everyone to notice him
Spends every night in the gym
Wants everyone to come see

Him play Junior B
