The Game Is On

The game's on, you've been hopin' and waitin'
so long, now the time of debatin' 
is gone, you've made it into the fight

You're tryin' not to stumble and leave the 
place cryin' when you're comin' out end of 
the line and you couldn't make it right

It's all about the glory of the nation
It's all about the shining golden one

There's a shot in the flash light
And a rolling wave of cheering
A step into the spotlight
And fame beyond all hearing

No fear, both victory and defeat are 
so near, in the heat of the moment 
it's clear, there's no running, you can't back
 out

It's done, you're screamin' and cryin' 
like one, who's just been taken up high to
the sun, you've made millions of people proud

It's all about the glory of the nation
It's all about the shining golden one

There's a shot in the flash light
And a rolling wave of cheering
A step into the spotlight
And fame beyond all hearing

Back home, you get back as someone
well known, it's a shining impression
so grown and no trouble in your eyes

The game's on, it's not the highest mountain
you've won, just a stone in the fountain
long gone as you're starting to realise

It's all about the glory of the nation
It's all about the shining golden one

There's a shot in the flash light
And a rolling wave of cheering
A step into the spotlight
And fame beyond all hearing

When you hear my name, do you remember the
 night, the blinding light
When you see my face, would you know the year,
 shed a tear
