THREE LIONS 2018 - A SONGSHEET FOR RUSSIA

Original Lyrics by D.Baddiel / F.Skinner
Original Music by I. Broudie


It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,
It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,
It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,
It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,

Everyone seems to know the score,
England 1 Germany 4,
Even worse, than before,
Then Pirlo came and blew us away,
Suarez then made us pay,
Iceland ruined our day,
And I remember,

Three Lions in the Charts,
Skinner and Baddiel,
Back when comedians,
Could get a record deal,

We try to play football like a don,
We scrape out of the group and then,
It goes wrong, we get conned,
And I still see those corners from Kane,
And a purple-faced Wayne,
Drawing 0-0 again,
And Carroll starting,

Three Lions in the Charts,
Skinner and Baddiel,
Back when comedians,
Could get a record deal,

[commentary]
"Smalling, to Henderson, back to Walker, out for a throw-in."
"England lacking at little bit of quality in the final third Clive."
"And the other two thirds come to think of it Alan ..."

Yes I know we'll play shit,
But we'll still buy the kit ...

It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,
It's leaving home, it's leaving home, It's leaving, footballs leaving home,

Three Lions in the Charts,
Skinner and Baddiel,
Back when comedians,
Could get a record deal,

Three Lions in the Charts,
Skinner and Baddiel,
Back when comedians,
Could get a record deal,

[repeat to fade].
