(I think it's bad news for the English game -Alan Hansen)

(We're not creative enough; we're not positive enough -Trevor Brooking)
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home(We'll go on getting bad results -Jimmy Hill)
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home

Everyone seems to know the score
They've seen it all before
They just know
They're so sure
That England's gonna throw it away
Gonna blow it away
But I know they can play
'Cause I remember
Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

So many jokes, so many sneers
But all those oh-so-nears
Wear you down
Through the years
But I still see that tackle by Moore
And when Linekar scored
Bobby belting the ball

Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

(England have done it in the last minute of extra time! -John Motson)

(What a save! Gordon Banks! -David Coleman)
(Good old England, England that couldn't play football!
(England have got it in the bag!)
I know that was then
But it could be again

It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home(England have done it!)
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home
It's coming home
Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years have passed
Never stopped me dreaming
Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming

Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Rimet still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming
