1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Sometimes we play in Red.
Sometimes we play in White.
But it don’t make no diff’rence,
‘Cos we still can’t get it right

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
What else do you suggest we do?

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Well, we’ve tried playing in White.
And we’ve tried playing in Red.
We might have better luck
If we tried playing in Blue instead.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
Is there owt else we can do?

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 We couldn’t beat the French.
We couldn’t scrape a goal.
Now someone must tell Beckham
That he should be on the dole.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
Let’s have a party.
There’s not much else that we can do.

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Some say he’s round the bend.
Some say he’s up the pole.
But have no fear, before too long
Capello’s head will roll.

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 And then we’ll party.
And then we’ll party.
Yes, then we’ll party.
And put Mourinho on the Throne!
