What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
What's your name?
2
Me, I'm the lonesome kicker
3
Extra points, field goals at your service
4
One might think it comes with glory
5
You might think different after you listen to my story
6
My helmet is equipped with a tiny face mask
7
What it possibly could protect, I do not know
8
The other guys on the team
9
Like to make fun of my little shoulder pads
10
And also like to hide the special shoe
11
I need to kick in the snow
12
People think it's so easy
13
To kick a field goal from the 30 yard line
14
They forget to add seven yards for the snap
15
And 10 more 'cause the goal posts are pushed way back
16
In 1974, the uprights were right on the goal line
17
But some of the players were running into them and getting hurt
18
So screw the kicker
19
Who cares about the kicker?
20
But I kick that ball and I pray it goes straight
21
If it does coach says, "Good job, number 8"
22
He doesn't even know my name is
23
Andre Kristacovitchlalinski, Jr
24
But that's the life I live the lonesome kicker
25
Kickoffs can be so very scary
26
Especially, if the returner breaks on through
27
And I'm the only guy on the playing field left to tackle him
28
I don't want to get hurt so I pretend to tie my shoe
29
Once again, I'm ignored by my teammates and all my coaches
30
"Go back where you came from!" scream 70,000 fans
31
Well, I know I could win their love back
32
By catching a winning touch-down
33
But, unfortunately, I was born with these very small hands
34
And I hope that the cameras don't come in too close
35
'Cause they might see the tears in my eyes
36
As I sit on this bench made of cold-hearted wood
37
And the splinters go deep in my thighs
38
And the towel boy snickers as he walks by, the lonesome kicker
39
Another blocked kick
40
And everybody blames me
41
But it was the left guard
42
Who didn't pick up his man
43
Oh, why can't they see
44
In my home country
45
I could have been a minor league soccer player
46
But I came to America seeking fortune and seeking fame
47
I didn't realize that if I shanked one and blew the point spread
48
Some drunk guys would push me into their hibachi after the game
49
So I go home at night 'cause I never get invited
50
To go drinking with the other guys
51
And I sit in my chair, and I soak my foot
52
As I eat a plate of cold French fries
53
And my wife's out with her quote-unquote friend
54
And my son can't look me in the eyes
55
But that's the life I live, the lonesome kicker
56
Kicking for you
57
They took my snow shoe
58
They're going for two
