Join the new world

...after that dreadful Algeria match, so I thought I'd rewrite the lyrics to 'three lions', by Baddiel and Skinner. This was the result...

We're going home, we're going home,
we're going, England's going home. (x2)

Everyone seems to know the score,
We've seen it all before,
We just know, we're so sure
That England has just thrown it away,
They've just blown it away,
And we know they can't play,
'Cos we remember...

One star on a shirt,
Never to be doubled.
Forty years of hurt,
Leaves us oh so troubled.

So many jokes, so many sneers,
But we've never got near,
All those times,
Through the years.
And I still see that penalty kick,
Which one? I don't know,
You can take your pick.
And we remember...

One star on a shirt,
Never to be doubled.
Forty years of hurt,
Leaves us oh so troubled.

We're going home, we're going home,
we're going, England's going home. (repeat until you break down into uncontrollable weeping).
