Pasadena 1994 the last fight of the heroes sent to war
Pasadena 1994, for the glory

11 soldiers marching, under the Sun on fields of green
It's their last battle, death or victory!
Against the odds and all the bets, bookmakers say there is no chance
Carioca's win outnumbers two to one

And Captain Baresi, leads bravely the last line of defence (Immortal!)
While Roberto Baggio, is ready to fire on Taffarel

Pasadena 1994, the last fight of the heroes sent to war
Pasadena 1994, for the glory
Pasadena 1994, first half is over, and no score
Pasadena 1994, for the FIFA World CUP

36 degrees of fire, 70% of humidity
Castel Sant'Angelo sets a jumbo screen
Their nation stands behind them, catenaccio dignified
To defend the honour of the FIGC

Romario and Bebeto, are neutralized by the italian offside trap (Maldini!)
While General Sacchi, displaces his troups for the final stand

Pasadena 1994, the last fight of the heroes sent to war
Pasadena 1994, for the glory
Pasadena 1994, second half is over, still a draw
Pasadena 1994, for the FIFA World CUP

Baresi shots towards Japan, like a North Korean warhead
Albertini lights up the crowd, as napalm in Vietnam
Evani quickly outflanks the Maginot line of Taffarel
Massaro got pushed back like the Entente in Gallipoli
Baggio's charge collapses: It's the Italian Waterloo!

Pasadena 1994, the last fight of the heroes sent to war
Pasadena 1994, for the glory
Pasadena 1994, the battle is lost, and the hope is gone
Pasadena 1994, for the glory
Pasadena 1994, their memory lives forevermore
Pasadena 1994, for the glory
For the second place
The divine ponytail waves on!
