Zinedine Zidane

In 1972, under a scorching June sun
In the French coastal town of Marseille
Two Algerian immigrants awaited the birth of their fifth child
Later that day, a star was born

Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Verón
Suárez, van Basten, Gianluigi Buffon
Xavi, Iniesta, Drogba, Hazard
Tevez, Schweinsteiger, Steven Gerrard

Alessandro Del Piero, Neymar, Forlán
Özil, Nakata, Jean-Pierre Papin
Ballack, van Persie, Beckham, Giggs, Scholes
But the strongest of them all

Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar
Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar

Lionel Messi, Gareth Bale, Kewell
Nedvěd, Maldini, Agüero, Raúl
Casillas, Cavani, Benzema, Mandžukić
Mario Balotelli, Zlatan Ibrahimović

Lothar Matthäus, Shevchenko, Cantona
Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Romário, Rivaldo, Robinho, Ramires, Kaká
Falcao, Franck Ribéry, Pirlo, Cahill, Kompany
But the strongest of them all

Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar
Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar

And you burn through the dark like a fire (Puskás, Eusébio)
So much more than the world is dreaming of (Beckenbauer, Platini, Best)
He'll fight (Charlton) and his light (Cruyff)
Will shine on and on and on (Baggio)
Oh why (Diego Armando Maradona)
With his will to survive (Pelé)

Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar
Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
Superstar, superstar

Cannavaro, Karagounis, Chicharito, William Gallas
Sánchez, Mark Bosnich, Hulk, Alexi Lalas
Wilkshire, Honda, Busquets, Dickie, Simão, Thierry Henry, Modrić, Vidal
Park Ji-sung, Donovan, Eto'o, Zizou
Zizou!

Zinedine Zidane, Zinedine Zidane
He is a part of things
He is a part of things
