1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 first the might of Norway
and now the mighty Swiss
bring on the power of San Marino
we can get through this

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 we can crush Slovenia
those Lithuanians too
and we’ll devour Estonia
but ah what then cry you ?

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Wembley wasn’t crumbled
and built in just a day
it could be worse we start again
there’s little more to say

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 thirty points will do us well
that’s what the pundits feel
we’re on a brand new golden road
or giant hamster wheel

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 it’s hard work watching England
like watching fresh paint dry
the old guard have departed
let’s give these kids a try

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 the test will be the big boys
but hey we’re off at last
big up our fresh collection
the World Cup’s in the past

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 the girl with cheese upon her head
outclassed our dreadful band
but still our fans were brilliant
and like an extra man

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 our manager could not sit down
our back line seemed to cope
our future brings this warning….

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 may contain hope !
