Verse 1 (Opening)
The World Cup is finally here,
England for the win,
First to beat Croatia,
Then it all begins,
Let's wear the shirt with pride,
And show the world we're proud
Silence all the other countries,
Chanting very loud.
Verse 2
(Match 1, Croatia)
4-2 to the lions,
Winning with a breeze,
Looked a totally different team,
Compared to the old cheese,
Next up is the Gharns
Tricky tricky game,
Definitely won't be easy,
But we have Harry Kane,
I'm sure we're get the win,
That sounds very nice,
Should be a bit easier,
Cause we have Declan rice.
Verse 3
(Match 2, Ghana)
Ghana held us to the end,
A strong tough team they were,
A stalemate at the end it was,
Nil nil were take the draw.
Just couldn't find a way past them,
Although we tried our best,
The next few games ahead of us,
Are sure to be a test.
Panama are up next,
Let's put on a great display,
And show the world what we're about,
The English football trade.
Verse 4
(Match 3, Panama)
Panama swept as side,
Finished top of the group,
Should of been an easier game,
Especially with our troop,
Congo are up next,
Should be a better game,
Hope to put a few past em,
and finish em with shame,
To the last 16 we go,
Dunno who were face,
Definitely not the Germans,
They lost with huge descrase.
Verse 5
(Match 4, Congo)
Congo wasn't easy,
They battled through and fought,
Was one nil up at half time,
And held us to a halt,
Second half was different,
We played a better game,
Who once again our saviour,
For sure was Harry Kane,
Mexico now up next,
There attack us from the start,
Let's show the world what we're about,
The Englands lion's heart.
Verse 6
(Match 5, Mexico)
Mexico was a tough game,
Causing problems from the start
What a great performance boys,
Deep from the lions heart,
Showed so much more resilience,
From the start through to the end,
Who scored 2 quick good goals for us,
It sure was Bellingham,
Kane also got he's goal too,
From the ball placed on the roots,
Come on Harry a few more needed,
And your win the golden boot,
Toucal's great decision,
And the fight from the England lads,
Move us onto the next round now,
Let's wave those England flags.
Verse7
(Match 6 Norway)
Norway caused us problems,
By far was our toughest game,
We kept our cool and held our nerve,
And kept the play the same,
We came back from one nil down,
To win the match two one,
Who got that magic brace for us,
Our god jude Bellingham,
Toucal wasn't happy,
with the performance we displayed,
Through to the semi finals we go,
To show Argentina our trade,
Argentina got lucky,
V Egypt and the switz,
Come on boys put on a show,
And lets rip Argentina to bits,
England team you've made us proud,
Oh what a magic squad,
karma they will get paid back,
Maradonas hand of god.
Let's get to the final boys
and lift the golden cup,
put all the shame behind us.
In England we have trust.
Verse 8
(Match 6 Argentina)
Unfortunately that was the end for us,
They played the better game,
The tactics and decisions made,
Put England through some shame,
Was totally the managers fault,
Taking of Gordon and rice,
Thinking we could could defend the game,
But then they went and scored twice,
Should of stayed attacking,
When we was one nil up,
Might of scored another goal,
And had a shot at the Cup.
The outcome we will have to except,
England you done us proud,
We all see the effort yous put in,
As well as the English crowd,
Forget about the negatives,
There was a lot of good football played,
You can Hold your heads up very high,
The great British English football trade.
