Cero a Cero

Over the horizon, in a closed stadium,
play the selected from the mountains and the hills,
on one side the rhinoceros, a monkey and an ostrich,
a dog, a duck, a rhea, and the five forwards,
a lizard, a donkey, a lapwing, a horse and an armadillo.
On the other side the magpie, an elephant and a deer,
from halves a cat, a crow, and from center half the cow,
the five attacking pieces, a rooster and a panther,
a water turtle, and a parrot that is an arrow,
and there on the right wing, they've placed a wild boar.

Spoken
The match of this afternoon begins,
The rooster, which is an ostrich egg, takes the ball,
he passes it to the rhea, but the horse intercepts,
with lightning speed he throws it to the side,
as the lizard is well positioned, he's shouting,
'Clear the field, I'll split them!' but he misses the shot,
Then the wild boar takes the egg, shoots low and flat,
but the elephant attentive clears to the center of the field,
there's an avalanche, everyone gets excited,
the fault lies with the seagull who shouted taboo,
'take out the armadillo!', of course, if he doesn't catch a ball.
The high and tight center comes, the dog volleys it,
but he's afraid of the iron and it goes to barks;
the game is suspended, the crowd is about to explode,
the donkey, a great kick, hits the horse in the belly,
the rooster wanted to crow, but the referee didn't call anything.
As the duck was charging, the parrot stops the attack,
to call a foul on the bull in the form of the cat,
the whistle sounds again, the ostrich egg comes,
the dog and the rhea jump, and the monkey, with a rope,
has him tied by the tail in case the armadillo comes into play.
Chaos breaks out shortly after between the horse and the wild boar,
because the latter hooks him from behind, and the former yells 'Animal!'
The monkey shouted 'penalty!' and the referee sent him off the field.
The elephant has messed up, and has become all wrinkles,
because of the turtle that doesn't move forward,
there's a vigilant southern screamer, nervously pacing around,
then another fight broke out because a cricket in the locker room
said he's not in favor of European tactics.

Spoken
Now they're playing stoppage time, the score zero to zero,
the lapwing takes the egg and charges like the wind,
at that very moment, a strange event occurs,
the magpie falls for a trick, the dog has fallen ill,
the fault lies with the woodpecker who ate the crossbar.
The wild boar is shouting from the right wing,
that if they don't give her bran, she'll leave the field,
the avalanche returns, an enraged lion enters,
the stadium empties, each animal to its hole,
the score, zero to zero, and that's how the match ends.
