Three Lions (It's Coming Home for Christmas)

(Isn't it character and heart, motivation as well?)
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
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

Loving that Lionesses win
But thoughts of last year's final kick-in
In Moscow and Turin
The blokes seem cursed whatever they try and I think I know why
They're just jinxed in July, but it's December

Three lions on a sleigh
With she-lion inspiration
Santa says, "let's play
The Christmas tree formation"

When they've decided on Qatar
Should have checked VAR
It's too hot and too far
So we'll be snowflakes watching it here
This is our time of year
We'll be having a beer
(Actually, I won't 'cause I've got alcohol issues)

Three lions on a sleigh
Jules Rimet still gleaming
A football Christmas song
Not since all demeaning

(What a cracker of a game!)
(England are giving them a real good stuffing)
(Ding dong merrily on Sky!)
(Oh no, it's not on Sky)
(It has to be on terrestrial, doesn't it?)
(For legal reasons)
All I want's the World Cup
Don't bother wrapping it up

It's coming home
For Christmas, football's coming home
It's coming home, it's coming home
For Christmas, football's coming home
It's coming home, it's coming home
For Christmas, football's coming home
It's coming home, it's coming home
For Christmas, football's coming home
It's coming home, it's coming home

Three lions on a shirt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Jules Rimet still gleaming
(It's coming home, it's coming home)
56 years of hurt (For the mens' game)
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Never stopped me dreaming (It's coming home, it's coming home)

Three lions on a shirt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Jules Rimet still gleaming
(It's coming home, it's coming home)
20 years of hurt (For the womens' game, obviously)
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Never stopped me dreaming (It's coming home, it's coming home)

Three lions on a shirt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Jules Rimet still gleaming
It's England! (It's coming home, it's coming home)
Settled years of hurt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Never stopped me dreaming
(It's coming home, it's coming home)

Three lions on a shirt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Jules Rimet still gleaming
(It's coming home, it's coming home)
Quite a lot of years of hurt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Never stopped me dreaming
(It's coming home, it's coming home)

Three lions on a shirt
(For Christmas, football's coming home)
Jules Rimet still gleaming
(It's coming home, it's coming-)
