	ou know they didn't see us coming But we can make it alone My heartbeat is drumming But my head's in the zone Now hearts may be broken And tears they may fall But after decades of hoping You know it's nice to be here at all They didn't see us coming But we can make it alone Let's just boogie Until we have to go home Now we have a story Of snatching defeat From the jaws of glory But that's no way to get beat Now we're not deluded Our chances aren't great But it's so nice to be included Arriving fashionably late They didn't see us coming But we can make it alone So let's just boogie Until we have to go home

about

This is a charity single for Scotland's Euro 2020 football campaign. Please pay whatever you can! All proceeds will be split between Street Soccer Scotland and LEAP Sport.

Street Soccer Scotland is a social enterprise which uses football inspired training and personal development as a medium to empower people who are affected by social exclusion, to make positive changes in their lives. Poverty leads to a lack of hope and a lack of opportunity, Street Soccer Scotland's mission is to provide opportunity and build hope.

'LEAP Sports is Scotland’s LGBTIQ+ sports charity committed to breaking down the structural, social and individual barriers which prevent lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ+) people across the country from accessing, participating and excelling in Scottish sports. LEAP coordinate their football-specific work under the banner of Football v Homophobia Scotland, working with Scottish football to create a game that is inclusive for all irrespective of sexual orientation or gender identity and expression.
