(I think it's bad news for the English game)   (We're not creative enough and we're not positive enough)      It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,   Football's coming home      (we'll go on getting bad results)      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, 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 near's"   Wear you down, through the years   But I still see that tackle by Moore   And when Lineker scored, Bobby belting the ball   And Nobby dancing      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!)   (What a save, Gordon Banks!)   (Good old England)   (England have got it in the bag)      I know that was then, but it could be again..      It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,   Footballs coming home   It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,   Footballs coming home      (England have done it)      It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,   Footballs coming home   It's coming home, it's coming home, it's coming,   Footballs coming home *REPEATED IN BACKGROUND*      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      Three lions on a shirt   Jules Rimet still gleaming   Thirty years of hurt   Never stopped me dreaming
