Everyone sing along, now...

It's staying abroad,
It's staying abroad,
It's staying,
Football's staying abroad

It's staying abroad,
It's staying abroad,
It's staying,
Football's staying abroad

Everyone seems to know the score,
They've seen it all before,
They just know,
They're so sure,
That England's gone and thrown it away,
Gone and blown it away,
And we know they can’t play,
'Cause I remember...

Three Lions on a shirt,
We always take a bruising,
Thirty years of hurt,
Never stopped us losing.

So many jokes, so many sneers,
But all those oh-so-nears,
Wear you down,
Through the years,
But I still see the hand of God,
And when Waddle missed,
Glum faces on the squad,
And Gazza pissed...

Three Lions on a shirt,
We Always take a bruising,
Thirty years of hurt,
Never stopped us losing.

It's staying abroad,
It's staying abroad,
It's staying,
Football's staying abroad

It's staying abroad,
It's staying abroad,
It's staying,
Football's staying abroad

For a moment I thought you meant The Offspring, until I remembered you had bairns

I can't tell you how happy I am that England are finally out. No more "All Together Now" on the work radio 6 times a day. Thank FUCK.

NB: Don't mention to people in pubs that you "hope England lose". Apparently this is not an opinion shared by everybody. Huh.

I would have preferred it if we'd won - I just didn't expect us to, especially the instant it looked likely it was going ot penalties.

Well, I'm GLAD they lost! Call me anti-patriotic, but I'm happy to go into a pub and not find it in total darkness with the curtains drawn, and a bunch of sweaty tattooed men grunting at a massive screen that dominates the whole establishment. No offence to anyone that's watched the football in a pub, like.
