First Touch Lyrics - Bend It Like Beckham: The Musical [original Cast Album] - Howard Goodall

Team skills, ball skills 

Life skills, all skills 

Require that certain age-old knack 

Of zoning in while stepping back 

Curved shots, straight shots 

Long shots, great shots 

They're lost if you so much as blink 

If brain and boots are out of sync 

You've got to teach your head how not to think 

Don't think, just do it 

Tell yourself that there's nothing to it 

Add a dash of trust and just jump in 

Don't overplan it 

There's no formula carved in granite 

Will's all it will take to make it spin 

Just try a little less hard 

Apply a little more joy 

Feel a little more a sun 

Reveal a little bit more of you 

Than you're used to showing 

The you inside, wide-eyed, outgoing 

The you worth knowing 

So if you wanna bend that shot 

Give it tenth of all you've got 

And you'll be amazed by what just doing can do 

Just give a little bit less 

And live a little bit more 

Go a little off-road 

And show a little bit more of Jess 

Than the frown she's wearing 

The Jess who's fun, the one worth sharing 

Who's different, daring 

So the lesson for today 

Is you need to kill the flaws 

Feel your way 

And the lesson truly learnt 

Is a hurdle undermined, overturned 

And you can clear those mental blocks 

If you think outside the box 

Then there's a hope of a chance 

You might be rewarded by the sight 

Of a miracle in flight 

So if something just feels right 

Right 

Right 

Right 

Right 

Everything I said was true 

All you need to do is do it
