The German group Fools Garden suggested their song “I got a ticket” as the Vth International football and music festival anthem.

The song written in 2006 tells a story of a football fan who enjoys watching a football match in which there are no losers.

Fools Garden musicians and their leader Peter Freudenthaler have been taking part in “Art-football” festivals since 2013. The group became famous in mid-90s with their hit “Lemon Tree” which peaked European and Asian charts.

I GOT A TICKET
Today's the day I've been waiting for so long
I'm on the bus It takes me to the stadium
I got a ticket and now I get in

I grab the beer and i try to find my place
hear the whistle blow it puts a smile upon my face
so let it begin

everybody sing it loud
together we can work it out
come on all you people shout

don't let it in
don't let it fall
just kick it out
don't drop the ball
let's take it home
and make it clear
let the whole world know
why we are here

la, la, la, la, la, la, la...

hi there people on the left side
welcome people on the right
I am here, some are on the outside – looking inside !
all you folks staring at the tv
it makes me happy - that you probably see me
I got a ticket - so let it begin

everybody sing it loud
together we can work it out
come on all you people shout

don't let it in
don't let it fall
just kick it out
don't drop the ball
let's take it home
and make it clear
just let the whole world know
why we are here

and if we lose
I'll have another beer

la, la, la, la, la, la, la...
