Three Lions (It's Coming Home)
Released for Euro '96, comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner teamed up with The Lightning Seeds to bring the nation "Three Lions (It’s Coming Home)".
In the years since the song's chorus has become one of England’s most popular chants, making it the ultimate anthem for English football.
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Football's coming home (we'll go 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-nears
Wear you down
Through the years
But I still see that tackle by Moore
And when Linekar 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
(What a save, Gordon Banks!
(Good old England, England that couldn't play football)
(England have got it in the bag)
I know that was then but it could be again
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 (England has done it)
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
Three Lions on a shirt (it's coming home, it's coming)

If you see me walking down the street
Staring at the sky
And dragging my two feet
You just pass me by
It still makes me cry
But football’s coming home again
And if you see me in the stands
I'm laughing and I'm joking
Doing what I can
I won't put you down'
Cause I want you around
Football’s coming home again
Looking back on when we first met
I cannot escape and I cannot forget
Southgate, you're the one - you still turn me on
Football’s coming home again
Time is laying heavy on my heart
Seems I've got too much of it
