World Cup/Football songs 2006

Post by grim_tales »

Did anyone see the Amarillo World Cup song on Breakfast News today when Christie was interviewed. It was called (Is This The Way To) The World Cup. Personally I thought the version some fans made up on the "Englandfans" board was miles better :D And funnier too.

The line, "England, win the World Cup" doesnt even fit the line "Is this the way to Amarillo" but "Show me the way to Bayern Munich/Where they say Vursprung durch technick" was perfect. Still, I'm more likely to be singing that then the "official" song.

Not sure about the Dad's Army song :? The Tone Deaf All Stars arent the sharpest guys, all they do is sing the actual lines from Dad's Army, with "Jurgen Klinsmann" in place of "Mr. Hitler" :roll:

Crazy Frog bloody hell :roll: [/i]

English football's obsession with equating Germans as Nazi is tiresome and offensive.

"Don't mention the war!" or 1966!

I agree I'm not sure about the use of the Dad's Army song :roll: Even though its' from a comedy. Poor taste IMO.

Here's the World Cup Amarillo lyrics:

All across the nation
You can taste the expectation
Finish what we started
England the lion hearted

Every single player holds our destiny
And they will all be heros on plasma screen tvs

England win the world cup
Dig deep don’t come unstuck

England win the world cup
Stevie G score for me

England win the world cup
40 years who gives a (Oy!)

England win the world cup
Beckham scores a penalty

Shalala la la la la la
England!
Sha lala lala lala la
England!

We’ve got the greatest football league

Every fan is signing
It’s a war that Englands winning

Lets go down the local
Have a laugh and get all vocal

We’re gonna cruise the group stage
We should win all three

The last sixteen is easy
We’ve got Wayne Rooney.

England win the world cup
Michael Owen is always good luck

England win the world cup
Sven will dance like old nobby

England win the world cup
Forty years who gives a (oy!)

England win the world cup
Then knight them all your majesty

Shalala la la la la la
England!
Sha lala lala lala la
England!

Sha lala lala lala la

We’ve got the greatest football league
Sha lala lala lala la
England!

Sha lala lala lala la

Beckham scores a penalty
...............

I like the "plasma screen TV's" line and the strategically placed "Oy!" :D

I don't know any other predominantly Islamic countries who play soccer.

Spain doesn't count IMO since the Catholics "ate" the occupying Muslim regime.
