We're on the Ball - Official England Song for the 2002 Fifa World Cup
They thought it was all over but it's only just begun
The cup of eastern promise in the land of the rising sun
Seemed a million miles away and one thing's for sure
The talk begins of 66 'cause we haven't found a cure
Send an SOS, a country's in need
Sven's the man, he's got a plan, we've found a super Swede
A nation re-united and England comes alive
Golden balls is captain and Heskey makes it five
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
Red, white and blue, the colors, the whole world in our hands
The time has come to kick it, can we kick it? Yes, we can
Sven's army marching forward, hear three lions roar?
We're England forever, now altogether, we're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
Over the wall, and into the net! David Beckham has done it!
What do you think of the song Motty?
Oh fantastic song
Is it gonna be a hit?
Yes it is!
Cambell to Rio, he's in the middle
It's Neville to Cambell (we're on the ball)
Cambell to Rio (we're on the ball)
Rio to Scholesy (we're on the ball)
Scholesy Gerrard (we're on the ball)
Gerrard to Beckham (we're on the ball)
Beckham to Heskey (we're on the ball)
Heskey to Owen, to Nodd (five one)
(We're on the ball)
It's Neville to Cambell (we're on the ball)
Cambell to Rio (we're on the ball)
Rio to Scolsey (we're on the ball)
Scolsey Gerrard (we're on the ball)
Gerrard to Beckham (we're on the ball)
Beckham to Heskey (we're on the ball)
Heskey to Owen to Nodd (five one)
(We're on the ball)
It's Neville to Cambell (let's go to Cambell please)
Cambell to Rio (he always get the journey)
Rio to Scolsey (we're on the ball)
Scolsey Gerrard
Gerrard to Beckham (we're on the ball)
Beckham to Heskey (we're on the ball)
Heskey to Owen to Nodd
We're on the ball
"Can I have the ball back please"
The cup of eastern promise in the land of the rising sun
Seemed a million miles away and one thing's for sure
The talk begins of 66 'cause we haven't found a cure
Send an SOS, a country's in need
Sven's the man, he's got a plan, we've found a super Swede
A nation re-united and England comes alive
Golden balls is captain and Heskey makes it five
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
Red, white and blue, the colors, the whole world in our hands
The time has come to kick it, can we kick it? Yes, we can

We're England forever, now altogether, we're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
We're on the ball
