New World Cup Song?

I understand that a new World Cup Song is being recorded.

What on Earth for?

Was not absolute perfection in this form of the Art of St Cecilia finally reached when our Nation was given, by God, the gift of Three Lions?

Surely it is that noble anthem which must, for all time, be heard whenever our brave young men step forth to don the England Shirt?.

Isn't it traditional to do a new one for each competition?

Three Lions is so overrated.

Real football fans enjoy "The Footie Song" by Adam and Joe.

Most England World Cup songs.................pish, pish, pish. In fact most World Cup songs........ditto.

However!!!!

What about 'Back home', the '70 track, the soundtrack to the Mexican conspiracy of forcing the players to eat poisoned fish-fingers and the Bobby Moore theft fiasco?

Hear me out.

Remember 'Perfect Day' by Lou Reed, brought into the 90s with lines sung by different artists?

Why not apply the same principle to 'Back Home'???

Line 1, "back Home.........." [David Bowie]
Line 2, "yadda yadda..........la la" [Kenny Rogers/ Jarvis Cocker duet]

Chorus: [all]

Line 3, [Simon leBollocks]
line 4, [falsetto by Brian Wilson]



..........and soforth.





EMBRACE, you are utter, UTTER balls.

As England are not gonna win, which is quite DEPRESSING for a nation of unnaturally high expectations and self-delusion..........

...........they should have got Morrissey to sing it.

The Hits!

"how soon is out?"

"this smarmy man"

"how can anybody possibly know how I feel"

"i have forgiven John Terry"

"you are the Sorry".

Only kiddidling, Engerlund. !wink!

As long as the old favourites such as

Two world wars and one world cup
Ten german bombers
One bomber Harris

And for the Frogs

if it wasn't for the British, you'd be krauts


get sung, I don't care what the official bland PC song is.
