Lyrics for Viva England

"VIVA ENGLAND" (John Sullivan/John Matthews)
 
INTRO
 
SING LA LA LA LA ENG-ER-LAND LA LA,

SING LA LA LA LA, ENG-ER-LAND LA LA,
 
WE'VE HAD GEOFF HURST, KNOBBY STILES, GORDON BANKS AND BOBBY MOORE,
GASCOINE, SHEARER, STUART PEARCE AND LINEKER,
HODDLE, SIR ALF RAMSEY, GRAHAM TAYLOR, KEVIN KEEGAN, VENABLES AND ROBSON, AND NOW WE'VE GOT ERIKSON,

SVEN SVEN SVEN SVEN SVEN SVEN SVEN SVEN
 
VERSE 1
 
STICK THE TICKETS IN ME POCKET
I FETCH THE FOOTBALLS FROM THE VAN
CAUSE IF YOU WANT THE BEST YOU CAN FORGET THE REST

CAUSE DAVID BECKHAM IS YOUR MAN
 
BRIDGE
 
WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE AND ITS NO MYSTERY
WE ALWAYS SEEM TO GET SO FAR AND THEN WE LOSE ON PENALTIES
BUT MAYBE THIS TIME SVEN WILL MAKE ENGLAND CLICK
WERE GONNA WIN THE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP
 
CHORUS
 
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
 
VERSE 2
 
SCHOLESY, GERARD AND BECKHAM IN MIDFIELD
ROONEY AND MICHAEL OWEN IN ATTACK
WITH DAVID JAMES IN GOAL, SOL CAMPBELL AND ASHLEY COLE
WITH JOHN TERRY, AT THE BACK
 
BRIDGE
 
WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE AND ITS NO MYSTERY
WE ALWAYS SEEM TO GET SO FAR AND THEN WE LOSE ON PENALTIES
BUT MAYBE THIS TIME SVEN WILL MAKE ENGLAND CLICK
WERE GONNA WIN THE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP
 
CHORUS
 
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
SING LA LA LA LA ENGERLAND LA LA
 
WE'VE LAID THE GHOST OF GERMANY
SO LETS GO DOWN IN HISTORY
BLACK OR WHITE, RICH OR POOR
WELL GO MAD WHEN ENGLAND SCORE
GOD BLESS ENGLAND
VIVA ENGLAND
LONG LIVE ENGLAND
SAY MAGNIFIQUE ENGLAND, MAGNIFIQUE, ENGLAND, ENGLAND,    

 

TO FADE...............................
