Rookie
I joined the Lincoln soccer team this year
My position for the team was goalie
I blocked the blazing ball and heard the cheer
Then the mistake I made was unholy
We had hopes of winning the league, but no
We finished second place instead of first
We failed so miserably, yes we know
It's as if Lincoln soccer were cursed
We tried our hardest, but not hard enough
We all hope to do much better next year
Because varsity will be way more tough
Whether I play again is still unclear
Thanks to that horrible mistake I made
My debt with the team still goes unpaid
