Official World Cup Song
They thought it was all over, but it’s only just begun,
The cup of eastern promise in the Land of the Rising Sun,
Seemed a million miles away and one thing’s for sure,
The talk begins of ’66 cos we haven’t found a cure.
Send an SOS, a country’s in need,
Sven’s the man – he’s got a plan – we’ve found a super Swede.
A nation re-united and England comes alive,
Golden Balls is captain and Heskey makes it 5! Chorus: We’re on the ball! (x4)
Red, White and Blue the colours, the whole world in our hands,
The time has come to kick it, can we kick it? Yes we can!
Sven’s army marching forward, hear three lions roar,
We’re England forever, now altogether, we’re on the ball!
Chorus: We’re on the ball! (x4)
It’s Neville to Campbell – Campbell to Rio – Rio to Scholesey – Scholesey, Gerrard. Gerrard to Beckham – Beckham to Heskey – Heskey to Owen to nod!
Repeat (x3)

*scary Jaws voice*
Just when you thought it was safe to back into HMV...
ANT AND DEC HAVE A NEW RECORD OUT!!!!!!!!!!
*back to normal, not so scary voice*
Those 2 should have never been allowed out of Kids TV.

I'm sorry, but nothing tops 'Three Lions' or 'Vindaloo'

Vindaloo is the bestes football song ever, with a great video, even for a girlie wot don't really like football!
Haven't heard the new one - not in a hurry to either!
Virgin radio have made their own one (to the tune of The Jam's Going Underground!
) and it's pants too!

best footie song has to be world in motion, pure class, then three lions. nothin can beat the barnes rap!!!!

i liked 3 lions..it was kinda amusing

I heard on the TV that Ant and Dec hadn't wanted any of the players on the record because none of them can sing. Then I heard a snippet of the song and was vastly confused, because neither, it appears, can Ant and Dec...

I thought 3 Lions was a good song for England but why did the always sing it wrong..it's "We're going home, we're going, England's going home"
All I can say is at least we won't need to listen to it for long because it'll stop being played after England get knocked out in the first round 
*Let the flame wars begin *

Keeping within the family friendly language all I can say it is a terrible noise.
Posted: 18:06 Apr 26 2002 i agree with wor kid! world in motion is easily the best footie song ever, though some of the lyrics area bit well you know what i mean if you think like me!! i.e. get round the back!!
